It may be you're right and I'm just not remembering them doing this
from last year and the year before.  Our wild berries around here
don't seem to keep right on like that, they bloom in the early spring

blossoms we go into our seasonal dry spell and that may have a lot to
do with it.  This has been a cool, wet spring for us.
