Pussy willow by shannejw

Pussy willow

I thought I'd missed the pussy willow season, but on my wander this evening I found a tree in the hedgerow in full bloom. This close up fascinated me, so that's the shot you got. I had standing tickets to see the Isango Ensemble, but the combination of demos and not terribly well daughter meant I compromised with a walk instead.

Three good things:
1. I got out for a walk in the fields
2. Watching tree surgeons in action in the high street - cutting the ivy off a huge tree
3. Interesting veggie curries for lunch - okra thoran, aubergine and spinach mixes - that worked well

Thank you for looking and your amazing comments and faves. I prefer to spend time looking at your pictures rather than thanking you individually below.
I've never seen them popped open like this. I'm used to the soft "pussies". Great close-up and so interesting to see!
