It's a tree. Do I win the prize? Red Maple

 

[blacklocst]

Old Maple is right its Red Maple.

Ding ding! It is red maple. Although it's one of the shaggiest I've come across. The nearest red maple barely had any scales on it. Go figure.

There's a red maple growing in the woodlot looks exactly like that. Shaggiest maple bark I've ever seen but the leaves don't lie.

Got a lot of red maples like that. I find the bard on red maples can vary a lot.

Very much so with no rhyme or reason. One is smooth as a baby's butt and the next looks like that.

Bark to me was "shell" or "Shag" bark hickory but Without the leaves I even wondered if it was not a smorfed out willow from Nebraska. No one mentioned That it will be DEAD when you cut it down.

I was going to guess Maple also. I did the same thing several months ago - posted a 'shagbark maple' and let people guess.

I knew it was maple but all the wrong answers had me double guessing myself . My grandparents old farm had giant majestic maple trees and they had real shaggy bark like that

Would I get banned from the site if I post a picture here of one to guess/do I have permission to hijack your thread, or should I start my own.

 

[unclemoustache]

Start your own, but hijacking is fine too. We all love the ID quiz game.

 

[chipper1]

I've officially been given permission to hijack threads.
I can offer limited info on this one, but have never seen something like it, help me out as to what it is(specifically, I know the basics like a tree lol and the leaf type) or what causes it.
Thanks

Part of that bark makes it the CBS tree

 

[Motorsen]

I guess An old Indian Eyebark tree?

Or is it the all-seeing eye.
Better stop now "they" might be listening, what am I saying, "they" are watching!
