Interesting articles, the monitoring work around wind farms is really important and it is great to see that there are more options available now to prevent loss of life from window collisions, let's hope it works and more developments take on the same principle.
Looks like the swifts have departed this part of the world as well, as if that isn't bad enough, I missed a honey buzzard over the Lodge yesterday as well!
