The second in the ‘Spring Stirrings’ series. Fresh zingy lime-green leaves and soft fuzzy downy catkins emerge from little branches of a Willow, against a lovely blue sky.
There’s a lot of new life poking up through the ground at the moment: daffodils; crocuses; snowdrops; aconites, to name a few, but there is much happening on trees and shrubs, too.

Don’t be jealous, Paula. Those little Springs signs will be all the more magical when they starting peeking out from under the snow and ice.

What a lovely, hopeful sight! Love the green leaves against blue sky. We won’t see anything like this for many weeks here in frozen Michigan.

When it comes after the freeze, it will be a wonderful, magical, sight! We’ve had more heavy rain and hail today but the sun is shining right now.
