Impact of light pollution from oil rigs on migrating birds

[storm <>]

This was a very interesting / sad report Laurie

There is a reference to a study done on the North Sea in the article.

This may be the study or at least covers similar ground.

It appears that blue light is the least intrusive for the birds, however humans can not safely work under blue light so green is the next best option.
