It didn't spit water even though it was only a month after felling.Big family the Salicaceae, includes many types of willow - and cottonwood.
Also the true poplars, not that masquerading magnolia.

Thank you Michael. Since my sample has the grey color wood near the bark, I am now convinced this is cottonwood. (Many online photos show it has the grey)
I like the light brownish Heartwood. It's grain is clear and very nice and straight. Looks good in a bowl.
