Almost Flowers--Flowersfromtoday

The catkins of the trees could be their flowers so here they are: Pussy willow Trees

1/2. Salix gracilistyla melanostachys--Black Pussy willow. It has black catkins with red anthers. Different

3/4. Salix discolor---the fuzzy soft silver Pussy Willow we are used to seeing.

I guess Spring is almost here if these guys are blooming.

Outside cat...........

.....from an inside window. This is Niblet one of the barn cats sitting on the deck rail. She loves to hang around the house, because she may get an extra handout or a chance to get inside and see what the humans do. MB
