On this morning's walk I found tiny crabapples, no bigger than 3/4". The tree overhangs the sidewalk so they are hard to miss.

I had taken a different path than usual. We live on a very busy street with no lights; the morning sun complicates things early in the day. The street heads due east, right into an incredibly bright sun --- so bright, it's hard to when it's safe to cross.

But taking a different path led me to the brightness of these crabapples.
