Hi,

A few years ago there was also a small colony under the bridge where the
road that heads south from Middleton crosses over the Annapolis River,
visible from the small municipal park there. I think they were between the
1st and 2nd Atlas, but I can check it out again next week if it hasn't
already been done.
