Why didn't Jesus know there weren't any figs on the tree when he is God and omniscient?

Mark 11:12

MSG - ¹² As they left Bethany the next day, he was hungry. Off in the distance he saw a fig tree in full leaf. He came up to it expecting to find something for breakfast, but found nothing but fig leaves. (It wasn't yet the season for figs.) He addressed the tree: "No one is going to eat fruit from you again - ever!" And his disciples overheard him.
