Yes, you are right Borderline. We have one - not the nicest of shrubs - I keep it mainly for the colour. We try to prune the shrub (without too much injury) each autumn - hence the fresh looking foliage
Not the most beautiful maybe but a wonderful shrub to have near a bird feeder as it provides safe shelter from predators such as sparrow hawks who often swoop down onto small birds as they congregate around a feeding station. And the autumn colour is great. I'm a fan

Now you've done it, Hostafan1. You've opened up a debate. I agree, it does look like it could be that, too.
It's a good point about the Sparrow Hawks. We have a lot of those around here. Well some kind of bird of prey, anyway. Someone said they may be Kites of some kind. Something to consider.
