Wood Identification Site - Excellent

[Greybeard]

Hi all,
I have seen quite a few posts asking help ID'ing various woods. I found this site tonight and it was so good I decided to share it with everyone!

great site, if you have the tree down already.

Pete, If you don't have the tree down yet, just show me a picture of the leaves and bark and I should be able to identify it :-D

Should I bark? or can I go get the neighbor's dogs? :lol:I'lll get the camera out soon, can't go out today, LOML won't let me take the camera out in the rain.

Here are two excellent sites for trees alive and dead.

For identifying the tree with leaves and by bark for the NC region:

For identifying the species in lumber form from my alma mater NC State:

I would need you to bark, and loud enough to be heard up here in Johnston Co. :lol: :rolf: :rolf: :rolf: :rolf:

If you get the neighbor's dog, DaveO will probably identify it as one of the Cornaceae genus (i.e Cornaceae alba if its a Siberian husky, Cornaceae canadensis if its a Lab, Cornaceae kousa chinensis if its a Pekinese, etc):mrgreen:

I know, I know: I should just "leave" it alone!

 

[DaveO]

Actually, it would be Canidae family and Canis familaris genus and species.



I had to Google that :-D :-D
