[TowerTalk] BBC report on bird kills at towers

[Darrel J. Van Buer]

Remember, we're not talking ham towers, we're talking about those 
thousand-foot guyed and lighted monsters.
It still sounds like a lot, but it would be scattered over a few acres 
of guy field.  At night, it would be nearly invisible and to a "bird 
brain" there couldn't be anything that tall.  The big hazard is 
alarmists applying occasional big tower events to everything taller than 
a tree.

10,000 at one site in a single night?  That number discredits the 
report, in my opinion.  Think of the pile of that many dead birds. 
Ever find a victim under your tower?
