Hi,

Are you wondering what type of pollen that is your bees are bringing in? Here is a great identification chart based on season and color:

For example, that red pollen sighting that came up in discussion after class could be henbit or snowdrops...

Another great source of info is  honey plants of the Piedmont

Happy spring at last!
