Funny you should ask this. I had a landowner ask me the same thing today about the same kind of tree so I will be paying attention to this thread too.

Pig Castration berries. While hogs eat them and instantly go sterile. A week later their nuts fall off.

Google buffalo-berry (Shepherdia). Looks close, but your first image shows pointed leaves, and I don't remember them with pointed leaves.

Fruit looks like goose berry. Leaves are totally wrong.

It appears to be bush honeysuckle. I hate bush honeysuckle.

Not a gooseberry. They have leaves like currants. It looks like a chokecherry to me. A member of the Prunus family.

Looks a lot like invasive Tartarian honeysuckle. If there's one there will be more.

That doesn't look like choke cherry to me. They hang on a little runner off the branch not connected to it

chokecherry wine and jelly are both wonderful. gramma would add a little honey to the wine after it was aged some.

Could be autumn olive, very similar to the bush honeysuckles. Look at the underside of the leaves, autumn olive leaves are silver on the bottom, tartarian honeysuckles are green. Both are invasive species.

Thanks for the reply’s. After a little research I believe it’s bush honeysuckle. Is it edible?
