Catkins from a cottonwood tree.
May 2, 2017 at 9:20 am
Well my mind said “witch hazel” and I got a mental image of seeing these on the ground under the witch hazel bushes at a nearby botanical garden. But all the photos show them as being more like elongated pine cones. Searched for “open catkins,” closest thing I found was pin oak catkins. Looking forward to learning what they are.

Thank you for posting this! We found some at my afterschool program last week. When you share the answer, can you post more photos? I think the ones we found were slightly “fresher” than these, with more colors.
