Blossoming Almond Trees are one of the first signs that Winter is over since they usually start appearing by the end of February.

However, this year Spring was a little lazy, since it took another month for the first signs.

The distinct pink color of some wild Almond Tree blossoms stand out, with great contrast, against the clear blue sky.
