What is it?

Almost looks like a wild blueberry and the other idk maybe a crab apple or something. Do deer eat these???

2nd and 3rd pick are Hawthorne apples or Hawapples. 1st pick not sure but maybe Gooseberries. Deer eat the heck out of Hawapples and they are usually falling about now.

Blueberry and persimmon. They eat them like candy.

Thanks I'm almost positive it's not a persimmon

 

[SRShunter]

Both of them are falling right now

You need to check them old grandpa eyes. That's blueberries and hawthorn berries.

Jusat don't ask me the species of hawthorn, that's something that botanists and taxonomists argue over. I'd guess Crataegus spathulata, but that is just an educated guess. Hawthorn ID is a booger.

I think it’s Crataegus Viridis but I’m more comfortable with Crataegus Spp.

Yep, hawthorns are tough. I defer them to my friend Ron Lance who literally wrote the book on them.
