Popeye and Bird Diverters




Popeye is still nursing his injured leg and finds walking pretty painful - from what I can observe anyway. Based on the last injured cygnet with a bad leg 2 years ago , it could take several weeks before he's 100% fit. Lets hope he doesn't have to tangle with another aggressive Cob in the short term!

I was informed today by SSE (Scottish and Southern Energy) that they will be fitting the bird Diverters to the Kingsteps Power lines next week, on the 29th. This is good news for any Swans that might be flying into the local pond. There have been at least two Swan fatalities there, but possibly others I don't know about.
