Pussy Willow

The Pussy Willow, Salix discolor , is proof of Spring's arrival. These fuzzy little catkins are as soft as my dear cat Timothy.























I've known of pussy willows all my life but I've never before seen a twelve foot tree loaded with catkins! Always something new...























And since he has been introduced, here's Timothy himself!
