Pollen

[Craig W.]

We are having another day in the 70's although tomorrow is suppose to drop into the 40's again during the day.

My bees are bringing in a lot of pollen and reddish to tan color.
Is there anything that will interpret pollen as to what plant (s) it could be from depending on the time of the year?

Thanks.

Craig,

Don't know where in TX you are from. In the San Antonio area, we have a whole lot of juniper pollen, but that is usually yellow to gold in color. Some of the other trees are blooming, so it likely tree pollen that you are seeing. Down here, we have not had enough time for annuals to flower, as well as most brush.

Craig,

Went to your farm website, and still don't know where you are. Did I miss it?
