dropping petals

berry one ( first photo ) is getting redder these days which is progress...since this is the first time i have actually tried to track the development i cannot say if it is good or even "normal" development...however it is movement...berry number two seems to have closed itself off from the world ( second )...it was closed day before yesterday and i am uncertain why..berry three becomes more striking every time i look at it...Jean has wondered if the berry is dyed by the leaves...her intuition seems sound from the looks of things...in the three days since i last posted the blooms four ( fourth )...five ( fifth ) and the triumvirate that was six ( sixth through eighth ) have all dropped their petals and begun a journey to berryhood...clearly i am going to have to pay better attention and post more often if i am going to capture the subtleties of the metamorphosis...not to worry...this is a long season...there will be many more blooms...there will simply need to be more posts.
