This pic was posted on a Facebook group and it started a big debate. I think it's a birch as do many others The admins of Group say it's Aspen.
What's your thoughts and why?

Birch.
Why? because it looks like birch and does not look like aspen.

Yes, it's obvious to us including the OP it's birch. But when making a case we often point out the characteristics that make it so. A number of things in this case the OP and I have shared. If we say 'it looks like a birch', it reminds me of Monty Python and the witch scene. But then they explain why she's a witch. :thumbsup:

Paper Birch.  The white papery loose bark and limb character. Aspen has firm shades of green bark.
