These are the male catkins (aments) dangling from the branches of an Italian alder tree (Alnus cordata), isolated against a bright sky. Italian alder is native to Corsica, Southern Italy and Western Asia. Its wood is very rot resistant under water, and may underpin the houses and bridges of Venice. In the UK, it is commonly planted on roadsides (as here), because it grows quickly and is dust-resistant. Close up of male catkins and leaf.
