wow, thank you for sharing. We picked pears last fall and canned them which was a first. It's so nice to see the blooming flowers that begin the process.
Thanks for taking time to respond to this shot Giradedon. I haven't tried canning or making jam. It seems that I spend a lot of time waiting for them to be ready to pick only to discover the birds and rats have beat me to it. I might get 8 or 10....if I'm lucky.

Thanks for taking time to respond to this post Szaljj. I appreciate all of your suggestions and may take a little time this season to give it a try. I have frozen apple pie filling in pie pans to use later in the year when I felt like making pies. Freezing the pears after cooking them down makes perfect sense and probably saves some time later on.

Great shot Vicki. Great DOF. Looks like a Greeting Card. 👍
I'm glad you liked this one Jan. I've already printed it in a 4x6 format for use on cards.

Very nice. I look forward to this scene in my yard, but this morning my pear tree has two inches of fresh snow!
It is extremely rare for us to get snow here although we got a dusting on the tops of some of higher hills. I'm glad you liked this shot and hope you can look forward to a similar sight very soon.

Many thanks Bob. We might have a good crop if the raccoons don't get them.

I saw your picture and took a look at my pear tree. It is loaded with blossoms but ours are not as big as yours. Might be that we are further north.
We had a real bumper crop last year, but did have the tree pruned last fall, so we were not expecting a big year.
