From bud to apple - the journey of an apple from start to fruit

My last three remaining apples were knocked off my dwarf Katya apple tree by some sort of animal that left tooth-marks in two of them and took a big bite out of the third this week, so the journey of my apples this year is complete. I trimmed the tooth marks out of the less damaged two and ate them anyway and they were ripe enough for consumption, so not a complete loss, just not the perfectly plucked apples I was hoping for.

I've been taking photos of them every week or two, so here's the journey from bud to fruit (NB Dates may be a couple of days out due to imperfect record keeping.):
