Once when I looked at the 4 element 20 meter beam it was TOTALLY covered
with birds... a picture was taken and over 200 were sitting on it...
quite happy to have a place to hang out together it seemed!
I haven't found any dead bird sin the yard yet - but I have found fish
skeletons on the flat plate at the top of the tower (honest, I really have)
... guess at 100 foot plus it makes a nice place to dine - HEAH - we
should kill all the birds because they are killing the fish!
Society is so friggin' out of hand...
