Closer view it looks more like a woodpecker such as the yellow-bellied sapsucker making a line of holes. Possibly the red Mulberry might attract more woodpeckers than the white but that may be a stretch. Will watch for other criteria.

Mulberry Tree: Horizontal lines on the trunk. Wagner Road
We have both the more native red mulberry and the introduced white mulberry in the area(introduced for the silkworm). Somewhere there was reference that the red might show horizontal lines on the trunk, cannot find it again in google. From a distance this first photo from a tree at the end of Wagner, north side showed horizontal markings and a possible "a Hah" moment.
