Found these red jewels when Chet and I were on our first "looking for signs of fall" walk earlier this week. My naturalist cousin thinks they're honeysuckle bush berries. I agree after remembering that the same bushes were filled with sweet smelling yellow and white flowers this summer.
Have you spotted signs of fall yet?

Lovely photo of the berries! I am deliberately NOT looking for signs of fall - I am not in a hurry! I still want to enjoy summer weather for a while yet. Oh well...I guess it is going to come whether I look or not!
They look like they should be on top of ice cream!
Are they edible?? Nice shot Faye. Yep..we are seeing some fall colors already, some of my mums started blooming way too early this year.
i like the row going off into the distance. :)
They look good enough to eat!
'red jewels'....love that reference!!!
