Salix ageyptiaca...


The arrival of spring seems to have slowed down, at least along the banks of the lower reaches of the Stour river, Dorset. What promised to be an early start this year seems to have now got in synch with the rest of the season. Some of the trees along the riverbank are only now producing displays of blossom like the example here.
The image is of Musk Willow catkins (male).
