We have a lot of these evergreen yew trees in the area. These pretty berries are eaten by the birds. However the seed within is poisonous. It is interesting to learn that the birds pass the seed undamaged in their droppings. Other birds can eat around the seed.
There was the cutest kid in the drugstore the other day. He was counting up his small change at the cashier until he came up with $10 and had a sigh of relief. He was able to buy his video game card. He said he had been saving up for weeks for this and was so happy.
