The berries of the yew tree are one of the strangest I've seen, having an opening at one end.

that is unusual..I have never seen that before..:)
I loooove those berries. They are so pretty! Wasn't the yew a magical tree?
But what a beautiful shot of it! Looks like it's lit up for Christmas.
I love the berries of yew. I believe they are the only part of the yew that is edible, and very sweet. As the rest of the tree is so poisonous I haven't tested them. :)
It is certainly different but beautiful all the same. Evidently the spiders like it too. Great detailed shot.
I haven't ever seen anything like that before.
Gorgeous shot! They are very interesting, aren't they :)
Very interesting. How big is this in real size? Any comparison at all? I must have seen this before but I just cant remember what exactly this plant is... :)
The Yew tree berries sure do look strange, but there is an interesting beauty to them. I need to get myself out into the countryside and see some of this stuff close up for myself...
These are really beautiful pictures. Well done. :)
