Found within creek bed in Orange County, California.  Have had this one for some time now. Always thought it looked sort of like petrified wood but is difficult to tell. The answer may be more obvious to someone else. Appreciate any input. Thanks.

This looks like some sort of quartzite, rather than petrified wood to me.

Is the layering and swirl in the texture or on the surface ? It looks like it was cleaned with a wire brush.  

No wire brush, however did use 30grit on the two red sections seen on the 1st and 3rd photo.
