    I live in Beaver Co, PA near the Ohio River. I've found what I thought were elderberries however I'm not sure. The trees are 10-15 feet tall with a single trunk. The lower 2-3 feet have thorns. They are growing near a retention pond. The berries are purple and in clusters, stems are purple too. Please see attached pictures. Thanks for the help.
