That was my first thought too but I just checked and witch-hazel is alternate. I think it's a forsythia cultivar.

Cornus mas, Cornellian Cherry Dogwood. One of the tougher dogwoods, with a great bloom time, almost edible fruit, and decent fall color.

The cornellian cherry will have big red berries on it and its an awesome early bloomer.

I've never seen a dogwood with a bloom like that. The blooms look like forsythia but the branches don't match and sounds a little tall.

Dogwoods have one odd charachteristic that I have not looked into, but maybe someone else has (Dan, VooDoo, or Siperlily, maybe). It is that mos plants of the same genus usually have very similar fruit or seed. Dogwoods seem not to follow that. The extremes being the Cornelian Cherry Dodwood and the Kousa. One looks like an elongated cherry and the other looks like a cross between a strawberry and a sweet gum. What's up with that?

I didn't really catch the scale of those flowers when I first saw this. I've seen these guys all over the woods since this post. Never really noticed them before.
