I have alder flowers swollen, have to check them daily. It seems they should be emitting, but they do not stain fingers yet. Bees seem to know it regardless of weather, they do not fly out and sensors indicate that they are calm. I’m in central Finland though.
Winter just came back hard, something about polar vortex. Bees are smart! I remember some years trees like apples were frostbitten in blooming with sudden frosts. Could this happen to alder or birch? What are we going to do then?

Nice! I’m in the US and it looks like silver maples starting to boom!
