    Anyone know what kind of tree this is?

    I took these pictures just outside of my apartment a day ago. This tree is so beautiful I was amazed. The berries are fleshy like a cherry but I don't know what they are for sure. They almost seem edible? Of course I am not going to try that unless I know for sure what it is. So far as I can tell from my online research it looks like it may be Green Hawthorn also known as Crataegus viridis, 'Winter King'. Didn't know if anyone had experience with these and would be willing to share info about what exactly the tree is and whether or not the berries are edible??? They are yellow fleshy inside with a seed and they have a fragrant sweet smell??? I picked these up off the ground.
