No vivid blooms but tiny pinpricks of yellow buds and unfurling party blowouts pop on the branches aside the curling dry leaves. The configuration resembles birds and butterflies struggling to float free. Flapping wings, strain and thrust. But it is not that at all. Just mid winter dormancy and global warming hastening early budding to tease memories of spring. Winter months still to go.
