What are these berries called?

[RifleBowPistol]

A while back there was a discussion about, whether deer like to eat beauty berry. The last time I pulled cards out of my cameras, I got two videos of deer eating beauty berry. The first one is a doe eating beauty berry, the second one is a spike, also eating beauty berry. They definitely like beauty berry leaves. I have yet to see them eat the berries, but I would bet they do, I just have not seen it happen.

Beauty Berry

Thank you, thank you. But I prefer female companionship.

They seriously make good jelly.

I called them deer berries before I came to this site and found out they were beauty berries.

They hit them the best after the first frost, it makes the berries sweeter. We are covered up with it, it’s everywhere on our lease.

Ever notice later in the season that the berries within reach of a deer are all gone?

I told myself I bet they are beauty berries before I opened the thread.

Just like I tell myself before I open every snake ID thread that it is a Texas Rat
Snake.

Interesting! Haven't heard that before, so you just smash them on yourself or is there more prep involved?
