Winterberry?

Driving around town I spotted  a group of shrubs with brilliant red berries growing by the road. In the warm autumnal sun the berries were really beautiful. The shrubs are about five feet tall. Could these be Ilex verticillata, winterberry?

Another view. What do you think?

    Glad someone else has already identified this for you, Pat. I see you’ve had your first frost. We’ve had light frosts, but so far nothing serious enough to affect the plants. Good to see your lovely cosmos still blooming.
