Bird Diverters and Drought





Scottish and Southern energy fulfilled their pledge to fit the bird diverters out at Kingsteps - well done to them ! Hopefully this will help avoid tragic accidents and give the Swans a chance to live. I noticed someone on the roadbridge today taking notes, maybe BEAR Scotland will soon brighten up the bridge railings too.

I hate to be a killjoy, but the river and ground could do with some RAIN ! I have never seen the river so low at this time of year - it badly needs freshened up. The river weed that the Swans need to feed their offspring - need water to grow in !

Bird Diverter is a device to warn bird about presence of power lines in their flight path.

BIrd Diverter avoids bird accident with transmission lines.

Increasing urbanisation is taking toll on wildlife. Especially, electrical transmission lines and towers, which inevitably have to pass thru the jungles, farms, marshy lands and also thru areas which directly fall in flying path of migratory birds.
