Is old man willow an ent? He talks to Tom Bombadil and captures Merry and Pippin. Is he therefore a sleep ent or is he something else, he seems too evil to be one of the ents that we meet later in the book.

Merry said something about it being the water that the trees drink, in which case old man willow wouldn't be an ent but something different. I seem to be going around in circles can anyone help?
