Thanks for the help, Brian. I agree. It was at a nature center in a forested area.

Consider Limber Honeysuckle, Lonicera diocia for your ID http://plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=lodi2 Lonicera sempervirens isn't known from Michigan and has completely different flowers http://plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=LOSE
