    Safe wood?

    I was walking around my backyard when I noticed this little branch saying hello. It fell from this tree (I’m 99.99% positive.) We don’t spray our trees, so I know it will be safe in that matter. I just need to know what kind of tree it is, and if it’s safe! My best bet is a white maple tree...
