Hurried willow. / Торопливая верба.

in #phototalent5 years ago
Winter is already fed up. But she does not give up, then frost, then snow. Зима уже поднадоела. Но она не сдаётся, то мороз, то снег.
But in February there were a few days of thaw and the willow tree seemed to be deceived, decided that spring had come. Но в феврале было несколько дней оттепели и деревце вербы, похоже, обманулось, решило, что весна пришла.

It was February 27, the weather is sunny, bright blue sky with white clouds. Beauty! Это было 27 февраля, погода солнечная, ярко-голубое небо с белыми облачками. Красота!
I stopped to photograph the pretty clouds. And then I caught a glimpse of something strange on the branches of a small tree. Я остановилась сфотографировать симпатичные облака. И тут зацепила взглядом что-то странное на ветках небольшого дерева.

Is it really? Can not be! Fluffy willow burgeons make their way through bursting buds. Неужели? Не может быть! Сквозь лопнувшие почки пробиваются пушистые бутоны вербы.

Usually willow blooms much later, in April or even in May. And here, February is not over, there are drifts around. But you look at these fluffy lumps and believe that spring is coming. Обычно верба цветёт гораздо позже, в апреле или даже в мае. А тут ещё февраль не закончился, вокруг сугробы. Но смотришь на эти пушистые комочки и веришь, что весна наступает.

After a couple of days, it was already cold again -5-7 degrees. I don’t know if little floral coats could protect a willow from such cold weather. Через пару дней уже опять был мороз -5-7 градусов. Не знаю, смогли ли маленькие цветочные шубки защитить вербу от таких холодов.

@cleverbot, @banjo, @automation, вы видели когда-нибудь цветущую в феврале вербу?

Thank you!
Yes, we have willow - an ordinary tree. But, unfortunately, their branches massively break off before the religious holiday Palm Sunday. Because instead of a palm tree, we have willow.

That’s very interesting. Willow Sunday it is. I think I like that better. But I feel bad for the trees haha Cheers @eto-ka! Have a happy day

The strange thing is that even here in the hot South Africa flowers started budding in early August, a month before the start of Spring in September.
Maybe weather patterns are changing all over the world due to the Ice bergs in the Arctics melting? Global warming?

Very interesting. Yes, it is likely that the climate is changing throughout the planet.
