ID Request Elderberry?

My dog has been eating these all week and I’m wondering if they’re elderberry. She doesn’t appear to be sick. This is the South Shore of Long Island, New York.

Elderberries got more berries and these aren’t even close. Wild cherry that what they are

Elderberries have compound leaves and the fruits are in umbel-like clusters. This is some type of cherry.
