yeboah Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 With the massive new windfarm currently being erected from the dumfriesshire -lanarkshire border extending across the hills from little clyde and beyond past crawford and onto the hills leading to bigger area ,this will surely be a massive obstacle for any birds that were racing this route ,now i am sure these wind farms give handouts in the way of cash payments to local communities that are effected which makes funds available for village hall repairs etc also a yearly payment is also made thereafter,i am sure if pigeon organisations that were effected because of these obstacles interfering with there main line of flight the clubs effected will be given similar grants worth seeing into ,at the cost of 1.8 million each a few quid to a pigeon club would be a drop in the ocean (or hills )
greenlands Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 I'm sure a local village not far from me all residents received some sort of payment. We have quite a few on our race route and I would think they do claim a few casualties. Lindsay
