Spring is Here (via the Bradford Pear)

Sections: This & That, Weather — Written By: Steve

This past Thursday marked the first day of Spring. And just in case you hadn’t seen the date on the calendar, nature provides some first signs of the season.

Bradford Pear Trees

The Bradford Pear is prominent around Roanoke, and it’s not uncommon for the blooms from this tree to informally announce the start of Springtime.

Happy Easter from Noke News.
