  You can find ripe, black cornus berries (Cornus sanguinea) in August and September. The shrubs reach up to five meters and the berries hang in umbels that are of an intense red.

For us the bitter berries are inedible. But birds are just crazy for this delicacy, even though some pet birds have to get used with the taste of the small cornus berries.
