Safe for birds
Today, however, in many countries the high-voltage cables are made in such a way that birds can land safely. By increasing the space between the cables, the chance that a sparrow or gull will succeed in electrocuting itself is much smaller. Of course really big birds could still be a problem, but there’s only so much you can do. You don’t see them on a high-voltage cable often anyway.
