Limbwalker, I know what you mean about how it looks like sweet birch. We've got that too. The bark is from Prunus pensylvanica, or Pin Cherry. The give away is the smell and how on trees that have been dead 5 years or more, the bark comes clean off. Sweet birch falls apart.  :)

Oh cool, bet it does smell good. I don't see many of those where live. That bark looks good for as long as the tree wa dead too, thanks for letting me know that.
