Wood ID Please

[Heem]

Just got a load of this today. Most of it seems to be from the same tree:

Also, Had a couple like this in my stacks.. what gives with the bright orange?

How dense is it? Any chance it's cottonwood?

The first 2 split easy, but are quite heavy. The last orange one is quite dense. I've never seen a cottonwood tree, I dunno.

1 & 2 look like an oak. Rock oak ,,,,,,,,,mayB.

And the picture does the shade of orange NO justice. In real life its VERY bright orange. Like it was colored with crayons. I'm not 100% sure that it's the wood or it got contaminated by something else? Nothing like I've ever seen before.

First two look like oak, dunno what kind, I'm still tryin to get better at IDs myself. 3 might be hedge, bark?

I agree the first two are oak, and I think Chestnut Oak (Rock Oak) is a good guess. If the third is orange, I'll guess Mulberry or Hedge.

I agree. The first two look just like the big mature red oak I just cut. I have some very old hedge that looks just like the last picture, but of course it could be mulberry....hard to tell in the pic.
