The so-called bird-line conflict refers to the interaction between birds and power lines. For power systems, birds' behaviors such as nesting, defecating, and flying often cause line short-circuit failures; and for birds, because it is often difficult for them to notice the presence of power lines during their flight, they are prone to cause electrocution or collision accidents. In addition, when birds are searching for perches or foraging for food, they may also accidentally touch the lines, leading to unfortunate consequences.
In November 2021, four Oriental White Storks accidentally hit the high voltage line in Binhai New Area, Tianjin, and three of them unfortunately died. In fact, this is not an isolated case, in the past few years, similar incidents have occurred from time to time in many parts of the country.
Between 2019 and 2021, 49 gray cranes were recorded hitting high-voltage lines in Urumqi. And in 2018 and 2019, the main cause of death of black-necked crane chicks born in the Yanchiwan National Nature Reserve in Gansu, where they wintered in Linzhou County, Tibet Autonomous Region, was also hitting power lines.
Similar problems exist in foreign countries. According to statistics, in the United States, as many as 12 to 64 million birds die each year as a result of the power grid.
In fact, the towers of power grids are highly attractive to birds due to the fact that they provide a good environment for birds to nest and roost. In order to solve this problem, we can change our thinking and use artificial bird nests to guide birds to safe areas. This will not only meet the survival needs of birds, but also alleviate their conflicts with power lines.
True Bird Repellent Technology's Artificial Bird Nest (ZQN-DL-NL), also known as Artificial Bird Cage or Bird Placement Device, can be firmly fixed on the top of the tower and will not cause damage to the line. The device is made of high-quality stainless steel material with excellent corrosion and aging resistance. Its structure consists of a 5-piece stainless steel frame, which is molded by touch welding, and 5 pieces of stainless steel dense mesh are also welded inside to ensure that it is strong, durable, stable and safe, which meets the nesting needs of birds.
