Glimpses Of Autumn

An abundance of berries adorns this bush, which birds are attracted to . And, too, squirrels (one website describes this as a 'squirrel's version of take out'!).
Apparently this berry is not only for the birds (and the squirrels); some people make jellies from them.
This riot of colours was taken in the autumn: branches of purple beauty berries caught in the sunlight filtering through the fall foliage.
