That tree has some major problems, who did the major cut backs on the large limbs? I would consider total removal, it's a mature water oak with major structural issues and will be dropping large limbs out of the canopy in short order.

A bird has to cross state lines to get a decent meal?
I feel so much better since about 11 a.m. CT on 20 Jan. 2025

I was going to suggest that those chips looked like a woodpecker was building a nest

Yep. Had cedar bees at the cabin. Sawdust is more like a fine powder.

I don't know about all that but that looks like an electrical contractor tree job.
