Hi everyone,
Here in east central MN the silver maples are just starting to bloom -
just a few blooms with anthers extended but with warmer weather in the
forcast the bees should be bringing in pollen and nectar by the
weekend.  The pollen from silver maple is greenish yellow and around
here is usually about the first available.  There is much early bloom
that non-beekeepers are unaware of.
