About 11,000 homes and businesses in and around Truro were briefly without power on Friday afternoon after a crow flew into a transmission line.
A spokesperson for Nova Scotia Power said it was the second crow-related outage in the province on Friday.
The outage was initially attributed to “wildlife interference” on the utility’s outage map.
