Lambs Tails

I just love the Spring, with all the new Buds, Blossoms etc.
These Catkins were found out in Boreham Street in East Sussex.
They make me smile & remember my childhood when I used to pick them for my Step-Mother, so happy to give them to her.
I didn't do that very often after being told that the Catkins would drop pollen everywhere & therefore unwanted, then they were thrown in the bin :o(

I love them, but I leave them where they are because I'm not sure if I'm allowed by Law to pick them nowadays.
This photo took me a while to get just right, just beautiful :o)
