In the fall, these are spectacular, tall, yellow leaved trees growing thickly and mostly along rivers and bottomlands.
leaf would suggest something in the birch family maybe?
anyone know?

Yes, they do look like something in the birch family.

Maybe Populus tremuloides...common name Quaking Aspen.
Pick up a single leaf .....roll the stalk in you fingers...Is it round or sort of angled?

The long leaf stem as well as the lack of jagged teeth on the leaf margins also point to a Populus species.
