B&W Warbler and berries? (Mniotilta varia)

No, not really. Although this B&W seems like it wants some berries, he's actually just passing by them as he gleans for bugs.
I was leaning against this tree when he landed right by my elbow! He climbed up the trunk, virtually just inches away as he went right past my face. I didn't dare move till he was up the tree further, then I grabbed this shot before he took off.

A lovely setting, and what a great experience, Bill.
 
He sure looks pretty in this setting. It's a great feeling to know some birds just have no fear of us. Glad you've had one of these moments and a great capture!
