Paul's mystery wood

[2feathers Creative Making]

Number 208

This block measures 5 ¾ x 1 ²³/³² x ¹³/¹⁶
It weighs 87 grams for a 3.4 lb weight average. The given weight for masur birch is 3.25
My best ID is masur birch. A poor grade of figure but the bark inclusion is also pretty typical of the masur I was able to find.
Any of you ID specialists got clarifying questions? I will try to answer

I'd guess holly based on what little experience I have with holly.
