Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
One of my favorite signs of Spring, love the fuzzy and soft looking Willow buds :)
Pussy willow is a short-lived, fast-growing, native tree or large shrub with a rounded crown. In early spring, the silky, furry catkins open before the leaves appear to signal spring is on the way.
Pussy willows are dioecious, meaning there are both male plants and female plants. Only male plants produce the fuzzy flowers. Home gardeners may be disappointed if they wind up with a female tree, but the flowers on female plants are equally funky—they just look more like greenish hairy caterpillars.

Donna, this image screams, "Spring!", and nothing is more joyful and beautiful then watching the Nature waking up after the few cold months. You captured it so wonderfully! Love the composition and light, and the details are incredible! L
