With the lighter days, some shrubs are beginning to show leaf. Most trees are still bare, some with catkins, like the featured pussy willow. But now the hawthorn is coming into leaf, second only to the willow (earlier post).
Soon all will be covered in leaves, all in the rush of the new energies of rapidly increasing light, of the spring equinox.
I can't believe it! 
Lol. That puts you about two months ahead of us, Barry! But the March sun is lovely and strong … and stays up so much later than in winter. Happy spring.
