Pussy Willow
Our Roller Coaster of winter to spring weather continues. Yesterday we had sunshine and temperatures as high as 16C, this morning it was -1c but rising to what is predicted as a possible 5c…but storms are also forecast for the week ahead.
So is it any wonder that we grasp with enthusiasm each and every small indicator that spring is out there somewhere, hiding ready to pounce when we are not looking. Like the first of the Pussy Willow Buds to burst, displaying their delicate yellow fringed interior.
So hope continues….spring is on the way.

YESSSS! Hooray for summer weather 🙂 What i find unfair tho is, why is it so hot during day and cold during night? Although the latter is a plus

I really love your photo, David. Reminds me of my childhood in England. My teacher had some of these in a vase on her desk, as soon as they appeared. 🙂
