Cats, and wind turbines are not the only thinks killing birds. This article is from the USA, but it might pay us to be aware of the problem.

This is just one of the links to newspapers dealing with the issue, but it is less encumbered with forced advertising than the one my wife sent me.

One article says Obama is ignoring the issues on this one, another says Google is part owner & that might explain why some of my searches goofed up!

Sad reading
