Unexpected result!

Many times, over the past few days, I have seen all the Blackberry stages between bud and burst, today I thought I'd try to ger a half decent pic as a reminder that nature isn't always as simple as ABC.
The pictures I got were nothing special - but I do like this oner:

And a closer look at what I captured by accident:

Very nice to see captured that different stages in blossoming can be found in 1 plant, or even 1 branch!

Mmmm, don't know if any of you have seen the documentary Grizzly Man......but I'm so sad for that little sweet bee ;-)

Nice. I have often wondered it there could be a mutant form of the blackberry that goes to red and never to black, giving a red fruit when ripe. Anyone ever seen one?
