The YHBL was reported to George/ Harold Forsythe, along Reid Rd., which goes
from Aldershot towards the sewage plant north of Kentville, towards the
Upper Dyke end.

I was able to digiscope it and get 3 shots before it flew to the west - I
have posted them for now in the NS-RBA Herons album, on page 2. (I&#39;ll

Green Heron in the top of a tree before, even where they are more common.
