Welcome to #BarkingUpATree - the tree bark ID quiz!

Today's photo is of an ~15cm diameter tree in Michigan's upper peninsula

It is time for #BarkingUpATree! This week, our image is from east Texas. This is a large tree (~60 cm DBH).

Put your best guess of species identification in the comments! I'll be back at 1 PM ET with the answer.
