I'd like to thank all that have written to me re. my observation of white dust/pollen on my bees.  Folks suggested the stuff could be skunk cabbage pollen.  I am in close proximity to a wooded wetlands where I've seen dozens of skunk cabbage plants.

This really put my mind at ease - thanks again!

Waldemar
