What tree is this? Looks like lots of berries for the birds.

Autumn olive maybe?

Choke Cherry?

choke cherry or black cherry

That's a cherry of some type. Leaf, bark, fruit is classic prunus. Not sure which species other than its not black cherry P. serotina.

Googled some pictures and you fellas are right, looks similar

call them wild cherry here

What do the berries taste like? Do they burn on the way down?

I agree with warrior, not a black cherry. Choke cherry or pin cherry would be my guess.

Had 2 of them outside the kitchen window at my parents. When those things would ripen and the birds got started eating them better keep your cars covered. Take bord droppings from standard to super acidic, eat a clear coat real fast.
Never could walk bare foot around those trees either unless you wanted purple feet.

Where I grew up in NW Wisconsin we called them pin cherries. Small sour fruit that made great jelly, and nothing more that I ever heard of. Yip. Birds loved them.

Choke cherries here (Great Plains) are shrubs 5-8' max, berries turn dark, dark, black/purple when fully ripe and flowers are cigar shaped clusters when blooming. The bark picture does not look like a shrub bark on ours. They form thickets up to 50' in diam. and are resistant to controlled burns but are susceptible to a variety of herbicides. Choke cherries get their name from causing cattle and horses to choke/cough on the leaves and fruit. Don't know what it is for sure but it is not like our wild choke cherries

Thanks for all the comments

i can tell when the big cherry trees have ripe fruit just by the way the coon show up to them.

Same here and they were loaded this year. I try a few every year. Takes about a week to get my tastebuds back lol. I had jam once and it was fantastic
