    Default anticipation

    no, not the Carly Simon song, but a somewhat early, and optimistic, image in anticipation of spring!! shot this pussywillow a couple of years ago at a local park with my old 30D and Sigma EX80-400 lens, 400mm, 1/500 @ f/9 from about 6 feet away...

    *ahem*
    "I know a little pussy
    her coat is silver gray
    she lives down in the meadow
    about a mile away.
    she'll always be a pussy
    she'll never be a cat
    because she's a pussy willow
    now what do you think of that?"

    not a poem they recite in school anymore but I don't know why
