Some ripe partridge berries (Mitchella repens). These plants are thin vines that wind under the fallen oak and beech leaves, occasionally popping up a leaf or berry. I wonder if the berries last all Winter, since there are plenty of them to be seen now.

The plants will bloom with small white fuzzy four-lobed trumpets in a couple of months, as shown in the second picture, taken in June.
