Unfortunately it is not restricted to road. As an ex train driver we had the same problem on rail. Particularly the older wheat trucks that the wheat loaders would stuff with paper or rag to try to stop leaks. Many birds would feed on the spilt grain and getting hit by trains. -------Original Message------- From: John Leonard Date: 01/05/09 19:06:05 To: Birding-aus Subject: Superb Parrots being killed Except that if the grain trucking industry didn't exist there might not be as many Superb Parrots in the first place!
