How sweet it is: a sign of spring: pussy willows




It was a lovely bright, sunny morning and I had decided to go for a drive. Then I remembered the area that I was driving through was the location where I often found early pussy willows showing their fluffy white catkins in February or March other years.To prove my point I posted photos from the same location one year ago on March 3rd., 2010, You can see my previous post here: http://naturetales.blogspot.com/2010/03/finding-flufffy-whie-catkins-for.html Deciding to be more observant of the roadside bushes I was driving past, I looked out my side car window and it was then Isaw them! What a wonderful inspiring welcome sight! Yes, spring is on its way despite this huge pile of snow at the end of our driveway.(shown below)
