Let's start with Wind Turbines. One of the faults mentioned against Wind Turbines is that they kill birds. I believe that this could be quite well true and that it is a hinderence to the development of Wind farms while people remain concerned about the wellbeing of the natural world. We still hope that as far as turbines are concerned that by some clever methods bird mortality can be lessened, for example, it is wise to keep away from the known migration paths. So much for our hopes as regards renewable energy!!!

But when the public points an accusing finger at our hopes to develop our energy towards a better future, may I relate that a more sinister possibility exists as regards our much loved feathered friends.

I don't know if many realize how millions of small birds have been slaughtereed since 2004 in a hail of lead, nets, and limed twigs by Southeren European hunters illegaly killing even the most endangered species. The biggest culprits are islands in the Mediterranean in the path of migrating flocks. I believe the future is not sure as regards improvments but we hope EU laws will prevail and that this horrible butchery will stop.

It would be very commendable too, if we were to find a more definate answer to bird deaths as regards Wind Farms which are still moderate compared with those perpetrated by people bent on mass killing.
