I picked up a truckload this morning that had two different types of wood. Any help IDing it would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

The first two pictures in this post. My guess is cherry, but I am not good at the identification of trees.

Yep 1. cherry 2. maple
 
My FIL lives in Western PA. Those two look awfully familiar! He uses a lot of those two (cherry and maple) and black locust.
 
Im kind of thinking or leaning toward Black birch for the 1st pics and Red maple for the 2nd pics.
Two familiars in my woods as well. And Black cherry too. It could also be Black cherry. The two share space in the stacks together.
 
2nd is red maple, burned a bunch last year
1st sure looks like cherry
 
HDRock has them pegged!
