| NATIVE PUSSY WILLOW FLOWERS ARE OPENING |
Thursday, 8:30 AM. 24 degrees, wind now SW, changed from NE a half hour ago. We had a dusting of snow last night. The cloud cover is extremely variable this morning and the barometer again predicts partly cloudy skies. I am beginning to think it is not functioning. There was a very distinct front of clouds earlier that was rather spectacular.
I took Lucky for a walk on the beach yesterday afternoon to get away from the TV and the dismal state of Wisconsin, national and world affairs, and can report that the native pussy willows,
Salix discolor (my identification, correct me if you like) are definitely opening their flower buds (the “pussies”), and on top of that, the Bayfield In Bloom committee meeting yesterday was so enthusiastic that spring must be just around the corner (but don't hold your breath)
