Maybe it’s my imagination,but my flowering trees and shrubs seem to bloom earlier than before. In years gone by, I always had fragrant crabapple blossoms to enjoy on Mother’s Day - This year and last they popped out in late April and lasted about three days, then were cleaned away by the wind.

Your photos are just lovely.
