It's certainly an oak of the red oak group. They're often difficult to tell apart, but the newly emerged leaves of Northern Red Oak (Quercus rubra) are often tinged red or pink. Might be Black Oak (Quercus velutina), its new leaves are often yellowish like in your picture. Could be any of at least a half dozen species, though.
