fresh wood for toys/perches

[steptoe91(tozie)]

We have a tree here. we call it a  'live oak'.  i know that is a regional name. would it be okay for a toy tree like 2nd chance jr's? i ask because one fell in my back yard during the last storm. i know i cant use the cedar trees. i know palm is fine. i know pecan is fine. i also have one in the corner that i'm pretty sure is maple. would it be okay? oh, and i have some pines but the closest branches are 25 or 30 ft up...maybe more. i'm not good at guestimating distance like that.
