Hi all,
    I had a chance to briefly visit Little Albro Lake in Dartmouth after 
work today and check out the Yellow Floating Heart population there. The 
lake is almost completely surrounded by private homes :(((  and a little 
hard to find. But there is a public access point off Limardo Drive (and 
probably another one off Albro Lake Road).
    I didn't need my canoe to look for the invader. The shallow 
periphery of the little lake is simply teeming with it; the lake is 
ringed with yellow. The flowers are quite attractive. I cannot see how 
The Dail. News photographer missed it...
    The new species cannot really spread downstream from Little Albro 
Lake as the stream is flowing in a culvert all the way to the ocean at 
The Narrows. We will see how soon the plant spreads upstream into the 
much larger Albro Lake and still further into Martin Lake.
