Cherry blossoms reach peak bloom in Washington, DC

Cherry blossoms frame a plane takeing off from National Airport at the tidal basin in Washington, DC. The cherry trees were a gift from Japan in 1912, and their blossoms mark the beginning of spring in the DC area. The trees are threatened by climate change as tides become higher, washing the roots of some trees in brackish water. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
