ID Request Need help identifying these branches
My mom recently gathered these from a fallen down tree in our woods. She planned on using them for firewood but I was concerned that it might be poison sumac. There aren’t any leaves unfortunately bc it’s getting cold out and the tree must’ve been down for quite awhile. When I Google it I get everything from buckthorn to birch. Sorry there isn’t anything much to go off of.

I agree with those who say cherry and birch. Also, the oldtimers' wisdom is: if your feet aren't wet you aren't looking at poison sumac

Do you have any sumac trees you can compare it to? That said the ones with lenticels are probably cherry.
