Plant ID

I have found a plant in one of my pots that i think the birds must have planted but i don't know what it is.
Its like holly but i don't think it is.
Any help appreciated

berberis lologensis springs to mind.

Or possibly Berberis darwinii?
Definitely berberis but confused, flowering now! Got the darwinii leaf but flower is too yellow, I think, unless the time of year has caused the flower to pale slightly. It does sometimes produce a bit of unseasonal flower. One of my customers has a large purple flowered magnolia in flower at the moment, so strange things can happen.

That's it thank you.
It was the flower that was throwing us too, although like you i have seen magnolia in flower in the past few weeks.
