Looks like a Red Birch. Also called River Birch.
If it was collected, I'd say that's what it is.

What part of the country are you from?

We have River birch up here too. It has a wide range. Also has a nice bark when it gets older.

Do the leaves look like mine? Cause the bark sure doesn't!

Thanks,
