In Finland these are called 'pajunkissa', which means the cat of the willow. So nice photos.

Ooh, lovely shots! I need to go on a "kitten" ramble this weekend (if I can finally shake this miserable cold).
Have a wonderful weekend.

Gorgeous images :D I have a jug of pussy willow and forsythia on the table in front of me, it's so fresh and pretty!

In German, catkins are called "Kätzchen", which directly translates to kittens :-)I especially love the willows' kittens, they are soo wonderfully soft!
