    This may be a little off topic, but I'm hoping that the moderators will let it "slip through the cracks". Anyway, these white, fluffy seeds (pollen) is all over Surrey right now and I am desperately curious as to what it is?

    Thanks in advance,

    Depends on which there are more of around . . . I got a face full of willow fluff yesterday, that's all over at the moment, too.
