Manitoba Hydro is making an effort to save hawks from being electrocuted by poles and prevent power outages in the Interlake region.
They’ve built dozens of platforms next to transmission poles for the nesting osprey.
The birds tend to build nests on top of hydro poles and risk being electrocuted.
There’s also concern around the twigs in their nests creating power outages or even fires when they tie them on to the lines.
