Flying High

Last week I took a field trip to substation 4 with some of the engineers to check out the new safety features, environmental upgrades, and daredevil starlings. (Ok, I really just wanted an excuse to wear safety goggles and a hard hat.)

Hanging out in a substation is rather exciting--especially if you have an engineer telling you about all of the high voltage surrounding you (and it's potential danger). Apparently no one has told the birds. They just fly through without a care in the world, oblivious to the fact that they are just millimeters away from doom!
