Cornus amomum or similar.

The leaves and the berries do not look right to me.

We can't actually see the leaves very well. Can you post a picture showing the top surface in focus?

here you go I hope this is a better shot.

Wow. That is not what I expected. The lower right corner of the OP looked like dogwood veining, but this is not dogwood.

The leaves are opposite, though, which excludes prunus.

Viburnum lentago or Viburnum prunifolium?

I have been looking all day myself. I also found Aronia has a very similar leaf and berry.

Aronia leaves are alternate. Your pic shows opposite leaves.

I wonder if it is a Buckthorn.

I'm with nel. I'd say buckthorn...Rhamnus cathartica.

tj

I thought of Rhamnus straight off because of the berries but that has alternate leaves. As does Frangula. So I eliminated them early on. Opposite leaved trees are less common. and those pairs of buds do look quite Viburnum-like. However, the berries are not in umbels so that looks like a dead-end too.

opposite to subopposite leaves.

Your second link is broken for me Carol23.

mmm - It seems that Rhamnus cathartica can have a variety of leaf arrangements - not something I've come across before. Rhamnus cathartica

well I cut into the bark and it is not orange at all. This is still a fairly small growth because it is in full shade all day so maybe the inner bark does not turn orange until it matures.

Buckthorn, R. cathartica, is so named for thorns it has on the branches but especially so in the terminal ends of the twigs. I included a picture of it below. Also a good view of Buckthorn leaves. The berries when squished have a greenish-black cast to them - the birds demonstrate this quite well.

well even though there is no orange bark they do have similar thorns on the leaves. So Buckthorn it is and I will be taking these out tomorrow morning.
