Thats interesting. I have cut a few this spring at the farm , didnt spray stumps as I read that deer will browse new growth. I will try the scratch and sniff test. If that fails I will have my buddy eat a few berries and seed , will report back….

You can make berry pies and wine and give it to the people you do not like and sit back and have a good time.
If the birds go to liking the berries I really hope they go to the neighbors houses to light in trees---over there cars and not mine-LOL
Yes, wild cherry. I've eaten quite a few growing up and never died. Green leaves are safe for livestock. Wilting/dead leaves will kill 'em dead. Spent the better part of my youth keeping an eye out for wild cherry trees growing in the pastures...
Service Berry tree
When I was a kid in Iowa, we knew them as chokecherry trees.
Some claim that only the unripe cherries green & red contain cyanide in levels to be dangerous. Ripe black cherries are safe to eat. Never tested this be eating unripe cherries. Never eaten wild mushrooms since an expert poisoned himself. Lawyer disclaimer statement to follow. LOL
