Was Old Man Willow an Ent ? Huorn? and how about that walking tree up on the moors in NorthFarthing?

sorry if this topic has been done already [admins feel free to smite if so]

I am reminded of Elrond saying that in the Elder days the Old forest stretched clear to Dunland [ a woodland region due east of Fangorn w/ only the ends of the Misty Mntns dividing them. Plus we know from the Silmarillion that Ents inhabited some region in or near Ossiriand so a late 1st age/ early 2nd age migration of Ents must have taken place and seemingly some [or something possessing very similar qualities] called a halt in Eriador.
