I knew it wasn&#8217;t yellow birch because yellow birches are much thinner and slender in size, while this paper birch is much thicker. Finally, I knew it wasn&#8217;t a grey birch because it doesn&#8217;t have the noticeable black patches like grey birches commonly have on their bark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/tF3GC6sZlpSU8NLoNc2LoyO5gUXE62OHr_hxMdsAddNpNiLT9q_DaKq8kORxfG5cVIGwoRN1qERHPmibTrM693yssqMQeuOmRzES9hjWNCV1ee2gW9KHSd5Ps847mOKhc6R2KbsXDtqgifN_WZq95Lw\" width=\"624\" height=\"832\"\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/qisNuW9jzND5fQePHMWvLEaTVV20EQDhmv9Pu0Qk3K8qQN6yLE-w4m419l2oQZSwPXYRV5bDSKpmnjTk5x8iXSSXzo3Po4gYTM-uG2yYndRKcucUIkFMYbPzEizLvBGHJ3zAJvmFRIx0LTL2Be1bpNs\" width=\"624\" height=\"1205\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During this visit to Centennial Woods, I was tasked with finding and identifying one out of a set of chosen trees.
