Can anyone ID this plant?

(1/1)

Mesophilic:
Was out hiking with my kid and the dog.  Saw this plant growing in a wash.   Looks to have potential arrow shafts in it.

Pat B:
Pussy willow.

Mesophilic:
Thanks!

YosemiteBen:
Given there are soooo many varieties of willow... This is one of them! Without more info, hard to tell species....

Hawkdancer:
The flower pods look very long, but a couple more weeks should give a better idea!  Willow will make arrows, also back rests, and dream catcher circles, as well as other non-arrows items.   I made a medicine wheel for a lady years ago, and it was one of the few items she kept when she changed philosophies!
