It's also a federal crime, a charge that the Obama administration has used to prosecute oil companies when birds drown in their waste pits, and power companies when birds are electrocuted by their power lines.

Birds get electrocuted by power lines? What?

The electric companies hsould send out crews to take down lal the power lines leading into washington since washinton feels they have the right to fine them for providing a necessary utility-

“Birds get electrocuted by power lines? What?”

I found a great horned owl under a power line on my property with burns on it's beak and feet, still warm. Took it to the local raptor rescue group to use for grafts. I was told that if I went back to were I found it I would find a snake also electrocuted. Seems they catch a snake and fly up to the line to eat it and it dangles down to the other wire and completes the circuit. I checked and they were right.
