Thanks, you always ID stuff for me. You always know! The holes for this tree were not in lines, but I watched a different tree with big, wet, weeping patches for quite a while and saw 6 or 7 sapsuckers moving around-- I thought they were red-headed woodpeckers. They were quiet, occasionally running off the competition but the huge tree provided plenty of opportunities for all. I saw 6-7 squirrels at a time in the tree, also-- drinking or licking the wet areas. Elsewhere in the park I saw a trunk with perfectly parallel, horizontal lines of holes, which is, apparently, the tell-tale sign of sapsuckers.
Very nice - looks like sapsucker holes on a sycamore or black pine - hard to tell from this close.

DeleteThe texture is very nice. But not sure what it is. I assume some sort of tree?
