That is not normal. That is a sign of Fungus, more than likely.
I would check your water parameters immediately, and think about adding some aquarium salt. You might need to seek further medication if it gets worse. Did you add anything foreign to the pond, such as driftwood?.. Non-treated driftwood could cause a problem like that.
