Guest Nicholas Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I'm still jealous, this weekend I'll be getting a decently quality specimen. A nice bark, however I cannot find anything from my local resources which point to an ID... I'm sure you'll be able to name it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
