Re Nocton Fen, what is the potential impact (if any) on birdlife? Are any species particularly vulnerable?

I sincerely wish more data was available on the effect of UK turbines (onshore and offshore) on birds.

The energy companies seem to keep the info under their hats. And organisations such as the RSPB and the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust seem
to be relucant to enter robust debate.

As a result, most of us are in the dark.

Why is there not more transparency on such an important issue?
