#March25, 2025: I see the 1st blossoms of the year @ #Bayonne's #St.TeresaDemjanovich's home parish rectory's #CrabAppleTrees; on #April6, 1993, I saw the 1st blossoms of the season, also #CrabApples, in #WoodbrideNJ apartment; Spring is now springing 2 weeks earlier in the space of 32 years!

A landscape oriented image of a redwing on the crab apple tree in my garden. The tree with its brightly coloured apples fills much of the frame with the de focused backdrop of gardens beyond mine. The redwing is sitting in the top left third. We’ve been enjoying lots of them visiting us, along with blackbirds, for the bountiful supply of apples the tree has produced this year. They’re a joy to see.

The image is of a fieldfare in profile, positioned centrally, looking upwards and to the right of the frame. It’s perched on a branch, surrounded by clusters of scarlet crab apple fruit, which are an important food source for migrating birds like fieldfares and redwings during winter. Some berries appear shriveled after recent frost or partially eaten. The natural, bare branches provide a textured foreground against a softly blurred, deep blue background of the winter sky. This contrast makes the subject and red berries stand out vividly. I was thrilled to finally discover where these winter migrant visitors to the UK were feeding at RHS Gardens Wisley this season. Having seen them roosting on the very tops of trees in wooded areas, I eventually tracked them to the far side of the orchards. Here they were feeding on windfall apples and their favourite crab apples that were planted along the borders. With the sun low in the sky behind me, the birds were lit with a warm glow and the skies took on a deep wintry blue tone, broken only by shadowed bokeh branches of oaks on the edge of the Jubilee Arboretum. 2025 was a mast year (plentiful) for nut and fruit bearing trees in the autumn with warmer weather helping them to remain fresh into the winter. Usually this bounty of food would bring large numbers of these migratory thrush species into the heart of the gardens but they have appeared scarce over the past few years. Here’s a description of the fieldfare from the RSPB: The Fieldfare is a large and striking bird. This chunky thrush has a grey head, lower-back and rump and chestnut upper-back and wings. Its tail is black and its heavily spotted breast sits on a warm ochre wash. They stand very upright and move forward with purposeful hops. They are very social birds, spending the winter in flocks of anything from ten or twenty to several hundred strong

This is on the edge of the property I live at, next to a field. I am posting 3 shots separately as I feel they tend to get lost when grouped. #TreeSky #RedWed #PNW #Photography
A close-up of a small cluster of dark pink colored crabapples with thin filaments coming out of the center that have yellow tips. There is an olive colored leaf in the foreground and additional flowers and leaves are blurred in the background of the image.

A Copius amount of #Crabapples
I was overwhelmed with sheer volume of fruit on this old #Tree. It will provide plenty of food for the birds and critters.

An extreme close-up of a crab apple tree with no leaves but many orangey-red fruits. Beads of water hang from many fruits, waiting to drip. In the crook of a branch sits a tiny cradled sylvanian families black cat baby in autumn coloured clothes. It's Reggie!
Tiny apples!
These are crab apples. Not quite crabs. Not quite apples.
Not really anything to do with crabs at all
...
Oh!
Crab means small and sour too!
Words are fun!

Close-up view of a Prairiefire Crabapple tree covered in vivid deep pink flowers and purple-tinged leaves, symbolizing vibrant spring color and resilience.
Crabapple trees are among the most versatile and rewarding additions to any landscape with their spectacular spring blossoms, colorful fruits that persist through winter, and attractive growth habits.

Crab apple bush in blossom.
The taxonomy of crabapples is complex, the native European crab apple is M. sylvestris. But this wild ancestor has been crossed with many others to form hybrid ornamental cultivated varieties. We grow them for their early blossoms to attract pollinators. #crabapples #apples #orchard #bees

Crab apples galore!
Loads of varieties of apple trees along this road, must have been planted by the owners of Kruszyna Palace, which has a link to Sue Ryder: pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pa%C5%8...
Autumn has definitely arrived.
two pairs of gloves today!
