The first apricot blossoms began appearing in Osoyoos on the weekend. These blossoms were spotted in an orchard south of Rattlesnake Canyon in the town’s east end. Thanks to reader Tom Shields for sending us this tip. (Richard McGuire photo)

Daffodils are already blooming along Pioneer Walkway and elsewhere in Osoyoos. Volunteers worked to clean up the flower beds on the walkway on Monday. (Richard McGuire photo)
