I need to get some seed for winter but they do enjoy the coneflowers. I also have a beauty berry behind garage and it has been a fast grower, I do not prune it much because no one sees it, it is just for the birds and the shrub has gotten taller than the garage. LOL. It has berries already but they are not ripe. I read that birds only eat these berries as a last resort but at least they will have something till the winterberries get bigger. Also there is a shorter Korean beautyberry that is a bit invasive, Callicarpa dichotoma . I think mine is profusion and I have no problems with it spreading, ever. 10 feet tall, but can be pruned to any size, it blooms on new wood.
