An informative, up-to-date documentary on Hemlock Wooly Adelgid in Nova Scotia has just been released by the Blomidon Field Naturalists.
This is all very relevant to Sandy Lake and Environs, where we have many hemlocks.
The significance of eastern hemlock in NS and the possible impacts of HWA (aka “hemlock vampires“) are discussed in the YouTube video, followed by “what you can do to help prevent or slow down this pest in Nova Scotia.”
Nine and half minutes in length, the video documentary was written and directed by Hilary Roberts and Soren Bondrup-Nielson, with special thanks to Ron Neville and the CFIA.
Thx to SBN for forwarding the announcement and to Soren, Hilary and others for producing a high quality, timely and informative documentary.
