Burls from WNY

I made a trip to Syracuse for a graduation and had a chance to see an old friend who works for a land clearing company. I had mentioned to him to keep an eye out for any burls ....this is what he found



Nine Burls...Cherry, walnut ,white birch, and a few I can't identify.
I put a 12 inch rule to show size. There round and I'm going to try to make them rounder

Very nice score! I need friends like that. Do they live near that dumpster CaptnA found?
