Blooming Pear

I didn't know we had a pear tree on our property. I spotted it last fall when I looked up and realized that there were big fat pears in one of the trees where we had cleared the vines in the spring. The pears were at least fifteen feet above the ground, so I left them to the birds.

With no more vines to harass it, the strange pear tree has put out hundreds of blossoms this spring. I hope the pears are good to eat.
