We call these Pussy Willows over here due to the ancient legend with cats !! The two buds at the top are starting to flower.

Lovely image, Phil, and a great narrative. I think I'd heard the story before or maybe that was catkins.

We won't see our pussy willows for at least another month, and here yours are blooming already!
Great close up view!

"Where there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see." ~Dorothea Lange
Thanks for the background and the fine picture. Very simply done with excellent composition.

We call them pussy willows, too. Very nice capture of these - I'm so jealous you have them blooming already! It'll be a LONG time before we see signs of spring.

Yup. Call them pussywillows here too. We cut long stems of them and bring them indoors to put in a vase. I have no idea why. They just are neat, like your shot.
