Has spring come early for my Acers?

I've just spent a few hours in the garden and noticed my Seiryu at the top of the garden looks like it's ready to leaf out.It has been a very mild winter here in the North East of England, the mildest I can remember, hardly any frosty mornings (-3C or -4C at the coldest) and no snow at all where I live.Last year it was very late March before they started to leaf out.Has anyone else in the UK noticed their Japanese Maples ready to leaf out?
I've included a pic I took this morning.
