Two days ago: my Bradford pear tree burst into bloom.
Yesterday: I spotted the first light dusting of pollen.
Wait, it's still FEBRUARY!?
Today: 20°F colder, I'll only go out wearing ear muffs, yes it's still February.
Four days later: high winds today, so my yard looks like it has had a very light dusting of snow but it's only white petals from the Bradford pear tree.
