@JudyEv They are available for a very short time and are delicious. Enjoy what you have. They look perfectly ripe from your photo.

Cherries are not so common in our area. It is not a native fruit. But we do get them in few selected stores. They are good quality ones but quite costly.

We consider them expensive here too although they are grown in the area.

Cherries have been in short supply this year because of the weird weather we've had. They've consequently been very expensive so we haven't bought as many as we usually do.

Cherries seem more dependent on the correct weather conditions than do some other fruits.

Oh, that's a shame. I guess it is much too hot for them to grow there and they are probably expensive to buy in.

We have a cherry tree that usually ripens around June and they are delicious if we get to them before the birds. I believe we have Rainier.

@JudyEv Some are different colors and sweetness. Rainier tends to have a yellow and red coloring to them. Some are tiny and some pretty big.

WE can't buy them at this time of years in California, but when they are in season there is one lady that sells wonderful cherries in front of the post office as part of a fundraiser for her church. She's only there for about a week and then they are gone. They are always very tasty.
