I don't remember seeing many catkins this time of year. The usually come out in late winter, as far as I know. But, here are some.
Catkins. I don't remember what kind of tree this is.
The almost full moon was shining in through the north window when I woke up this morning. The temperature is just under 3ºC. I'm seeing predictions of -3ºC for the weekend. Brrr! Today we plan to enjoy a warming meal of sauerkraut with smoked meats. Yum!
Beautiful colors. I won’t complain about our chilly 13 this morning.
ReplyDeleteOh, yumm!
ReplyDeleteI had zero idea what a catkin was.
It's balmy here. Not Christmasy at all- it will go to 73 today, but we have lots of houses with the rooftops lit with white lights which is festive.
ReplyDeleteAre these seed pods?

Lovely photo. Perhaps a hazelnut tree.
ReplyDeleteAgree, hazel catkins... the visible leaf edge says hazel to me too!
DeleteThose catkins do look like they are from filbert (oftentimes called hazenut!) trees.
ReplyDeleteAh, catkins. Women in Love, D.H. Lawrence. Chapter 3. Fabulous movie scene too.
