Mikizinaniisii Member M Joined: May 2004 West Virginia	You can find the berries I am speaking of in my mystery plant folder and also in my plants folder. They are Blue and grow in clusters. The birds seem to enjoy them very much, cardinal and Blue jays are seen on them often. But what are they? Bay berries, a wild blue berry? Are they edible, or toxic to humans? http://community.webshots.com/user/mikizinaniisii Miki
