A Sign of Spring?


Pussywillow, originally uploaded by ElementaryTechTeacher.

Our neighbors have a pussy willow tree and I was so surprised to look over and see this yesterday. I didn't think they came out until March. I wonder if this means we're going to have an early spring? Hard to imagine since I walked through knee deep snow to get this picture.

  3. As an Aussie I've never seen a pussy willow before...quite an unusual looking plant. I'm interested in what the rest of it looks like too!

  4. I'll have to take a picture of the whole thing. Not very impressive from afar this time of year.
