The immature little blue heron that was spotted at Berlin Lake Wilderness 
Area by Kent Miller on July 26 was still at the pond today when I stopped 
by around 1:00.  I've copied his directions below, which helped me find 
the spot.  The only thing I would add to his directions is that there are 
two unmarked parking areas along this stretch of road.  You want to use 
the northernmost one.

To reach this poorly marked spot, take Rt. 225 north from Alliance. Between
German Church Rd & Fewtown Rd, there is a small, unmarked parking area on 
the east side of 225. From the parking area a 2-track gravel road heads 
east running underneath a high tension power line the whole way (an osprey 
nest sits on one tower).  You will pass a pond on your right and then come 
to a second pond that is full of dead trees that are home to red-headed 
woodpeckers.
