I was out on our property where we have blueberry plants and noticed that some of the plants were in bloom and others had some new berries on them! Has anyone else seen this?

This sort of fall bloom happens to lingonberries sometimes. Both lingonberries and blueberries are in the same genus (Vaccinium). I've not seen this for blueberries, but I wouldn't be surprised since it is a close relative of lingonberries.
