I found this twinberry honeysuckle behind Holly's house.
Black Twinberry (Lonicera involucrata)
Black Twinberry’s stunning green leaves and beautiful tubular, yellow flowers could be a wonderful fit for your garden. This deciduous fast-growing, shrub thrives in moist, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade.
The name Twinberry comes from the dark, shiny berries that grow in pairs, nestled in what looks like a little red nest. These berries are eaten by small mammals, and birds, and the bright yellow flowers provide an importance source of nectar for hummingbirds, butterflies, and moths.

Native to Washington
Black twinberry's delicate yellow flowers grow in pairs and are subtended by two bracts that become a vibrant red as the season progresses. The flowers are visited by hummingbirds and other pollinators and the black berries are enjoyed by birds, making it a perfect addition to the wildlife garden. It can grow in full sun and shade but requires moist soil, even tolerating some seasonal flooding.
The berries should be avoided by humans.
