Willow catkin

The willow by the pond is putting forth catkins! The unusually warm (for Ottawa in winter)weather is likely responsible.

Interesting! I noticed that some spring bulbs in my neighborhood started popping up during this warm spell and one of my coniferous bushes started growing buds of some sort, but I didn't notice any catkins on the willows here. I wonder if we are going to be seeing butterflies in March again this year. I hope we do get some good snow falls, though, before the winter is out.
