Bald Cypress or Dawn Redwood?

A conifer is a cone bearing tree. Many conifers are evergreen, but some are deciduous which means they lose their needles in autumn. I thought this tree was a bald cypress which is a deciduous conifer, but now I believe it is a dawn redwood. What do you think? Watch the video below to decide.

These cones are filled with seeds which provide food for wildlife.
