A Unionville reader was kind enough to share the following item with me: "There is a heron of some sort who struts around the meadow on Rt. 926 between School House and Northbrook Rd. He's lovely. If you're driving by there try to spot him."
"I don't know about `lovely'-- maybe `lonely'!" commented another friend who has also seen the heron. He said the bird, which he identified as a great blue heron, was "maybe 10 feet from traffic during rush hour, and staring intently at something in the grass -- from which I deduce they eat more than fish, as there were no fish along Route 926."
He said he (my friend) did a double-take when he saw the out-of-place bird so close to the road.
