Default Re: Marks in wood: dead oak >> Opinions !!

They do like remarkably like the dissections of trees with injection/implant wounds in Shigo's A New Tree Biology Fig 40-7 pg527, so I would quess if no such treatments were undertaken (which I think is a pretty sound bet!) then woodpecker is a good candidate..all around the same time too.
