Cherry or birch or something else?

[vande111]

We cut down some trees at work and no one knows if it’s cherry or birch. Depending on what it is I’ll either plank it up for a table or split it for some nice wood for the next winter or two. Hopefully someone can help id it for us.

Whatever it is, the Vine crawling up it looks like Poison Ivy

The bark on the stump looks like Cherry

Not the best angle but the bark looks like cherry.

Like said about the bark ..... cherry. The standing pic of tree ...... cherry.
The fresh cut has me 2nd guessing. Still looks like cherry but not black cherry.
I do not think this is birch at all from the bark although the fresh cut does look a bit like black birch .... kinda.

I'm leaning heavily towards cherry.

Definitely cherry- I’m burning some now I got and split in early spring- moisture meter reads 10-14%

Thanks, there are some black birch trees around that area that i also cut down. Like you said, the wood looks similar but they didnt have mutiple trunks from one root base so we weren't sure. Cherry is definitely what i was hoping for

Drive it up here. I'll inspect it and burn some, let you know how it does. Just to be sure.
