Blackberries

The blackberries are very late this year.

Normally by the time that the Moville and Greencastle regattas are over it is time for picking.

However, many of the blackberries are still green or just turning red.

They don't seem any great size either.

Late Spring

According to Gerry McLaughlin senior, who is 82, "It's going to be a desperate year for blackberries".

It must be related to the late Spring.

Let's hope everything is late this year and what we are experiencing now is early summer.
