    Just going by the berries and the branch structure, I'd say some kind of Japanese barberry.

    Kathy, thanks for taking a guess. It looks like you are the only one brave enough. LOL.

    The shrub is the Burning Bush.

    From what I understand the amount of fruit produced varies a lot -- just depends if it likes where its planted. Mine is full of berries this year.

    I got here too late, I knew the answer!

    I've been trying to get a nice photo of the berries, but for some reason my macro lense refuses to focus on them.

    Great shot!

    Jenn, you missed out on the big prize! LOL. I was planning to leave it open a little longer, but since I posted so many pictures today, it forced this post so low down that I was afraid I would forget to come back and give the answer. For some odd reason known only to the highest cyberspace diety, I do not get email notices for most of the comments.

    I have a Burning bush and never noticed berries on it. Wonder if there are male and females bushes or does it make a difference? I'll have to go look at mine again.

    Spice bush berries look very similar, but they dropped in November. (Not before I got some seeds to plant, though!)
