Berry identification

Whenever I go hiking with Shana, I have to keep her from eating any berries she finds.
I'll admit I'm no good at ID-ing berries in the field.
So I photograph them.
Here's one from the trail at Oxbow Falls Park in August.

Looking at the leaves, my first thought was solomon's seal.....although I wasn't familiar with the berries. This is a pretty good match. You can see the one berry in your photo is starting to turn a more golden color like the berries in the photo I've provided. Probably taken just a touch later in the season.
