Gives you that feel-good that Spring might really be coming, eh?  Earlier this week I have bees bringing in some orange, some yellow, and some white pollen.  But it was only on, say, two bees out of 20+?  And, only on one hive.  Obviously, not a strong source, but it gave me hope! :)

Could be elm.  Check any local Silver maples though...
