July3 - walk up to Fullabrook Down Wind farm - part 8

This video was taken further on, past the hamlet of Beara and near to Pippacott, looking over a gate on the side of the road. The turbine you can see is Turbine 8. Again there were numerous birds flying around, and you can glimpse one or two of them on this video. There was also a large bird circling high up in the sky. I am not sure what kind of bird it was, it was difficult to photograph well as the sun was very bright and dazzling. Having watched birds flying at around blade height I am even more concerned about what will happen once the blades are in motion.

I have recently been to Fullabrook and I can assure you that, there are not piles of birds at the bases of the turbines.

Type into youtube Do Wind Turbines Kill Birds? this video makes some good points.

I have heard that these things kill a lot of birds,
