Cherries seem to be particularly floriferous this year.

Don't know whether you're speaking generally or were prompted by my unfocussed shot; it's a Magnolia!!!

Ha ha. I was speaking generally but your photo prompted the thought. Though as I was writing I had the nagging idea that yours might have been a Magnolia, not cherry!

I've noticed recently that they look quite similar from a distance. Similar size, colour and same timing.

I have a few dodgy phone pictures - will try to get out with the proper camera tomorrow.  20+ degrees here (in central France) today and suddenly loads of stuff turning up.  Was out in the woods this pm and in no particular order in 2 hours i saw all 3 spotted woodpeckers (my wife saw the black one on Tuesday), Oil beetle, Lots of early season butterflies (Red Admiral, Peacock, Brimstone, Large Tortoiseshell and male Orange Tip) and finally under a bit of matting a mum and 2 baby slow worms.  Not bad for one afternoon.

Oh and one of my daughters saw loads of Palmate newts in the old millstream !

Lots of nature out and Spring seems to have started.

 

frogspawn in the pond and honeybees in a hollow tree coming in with lots of pollen.
