I've been experimenting with the macro setting on my camera lately. These are Chinaberry tree berries, which are still hanging on the tree. In spring, mockingbirds will eat these berries. HOWEVER, they are toxic to pets and livestock! The birds do LOVE the berries. We also have a tree in our backyard, but our tree still has its leaves. Our pets have never bothered the berries, but mockingbirds sure LOVE them! This tree is up in our local mountains, where I board my 5 horses. Mellow Yellow Monday for December 28, 2009.

What a neat tree. I've read about chinaberry trees but that's the first I've seen. Thanks!
They are absolutely pretty and nice shot as well. Keep up the good work.

I've never seen these yellowberries. If the birds eat them that is a great thing too. I love planting flowers and bushes that attract the birds and wildlife.
Interesting color for berries..
Have you seen an 80's style of hair?, come and see.
i've only seen blue and red.
and this is the first time for me to view yellow china berries.
