Amazing. this year's weather seems to have confused nature somewhat. My Holly has blossom on it at present when it should have red berries

A little pear tree on our lockdown walk had blossom recently and now has a few little pears.

I haven't seen any

I expect the birds would get any before I saw them.

The Blackcap I had last week spent a lot of time in the Rowan which is hosting the mistletoe so if there were any berries they will have gone now.

Not in my garden, but along the road there are crocuses in flower.

I've not seen any crocuses yet but there are a few Snowdrops appearing.
It looks as though it's going to be a decent year for my Daffs. There are plenty of flower buds waiting for the right weather.

Is looking rather colourful down this neck of the woods. In fact i took a walk down the woods and there are lots of daffys in flower.
