Does anyone know the name of this berry-bearing shrub?

Watching this video I was wondering what the Blackpoll was doing with the berry(ies). It appeared it was not eating them, but was doing something and then dropping them. We get our answer at about the 3:00 mark; the bird is taking the pulp and dropping the casing.



Wow.
