Tree ID please

Portage, WI(Zone 5a)

Just noticed this tree (over 6 foot tall, just assume it is a tree,) growing in along with the pines in my windbreak, front yard. Interesting bark, plain leaves, orange berries. ID please. Gene

Oh dear, looks like the invasive Tatarian Honeysuckle Lonicera tataricus.
too bad, it's attractive!

Thanks. A Google even found me a page here at Dave's on it. Yes, hollow stems. Work list for tomorrow will be to go out with shovel and dig it up. Scour the woods for more. Probably the best time to look as the berries will give it away. I have heard that there are invasive Honeysuckles around. Gene

Go Gene, go!

Too bad you couldn't get a bounty on them varmints...
