It was a close view of the new catkins on my corkscrew Hazel. I always find it amazing how early these catkins are produced. They will stay tightly closed all the way through the Winter cold weather and open up with the warmer weather next Spring. The bush will eventually produce nuts very much like the ones many like to eat:
My grateful thanks to all those who have attempted to identify the mystery photos over the year. I will probably start again in the New Year.
You went out on a high. I hope to see the Macros back soon.
ReplyDeleteAdrian. I need a bit of a rest from them but should start again early next year.
DeleteI was stumped with this one but I did keep thinking of catkins - should have had a guess! Thanks for your weekly "quiz" - have really enjoyed and hope you carry on next year :) Have a lovely Christmas :)
ReplyDeleteRagged Robin. Thank you for your kind comment, pleased you enjoyed them. Hope to start again in January.
