So what you’re saying is that it’s mostly the rarest birds that get killed by wind turbines?

No, nowhere did I say that.

 

By the way: I just read about a study in Spain that claims that very year in Andalusia alone 2.6 million birds are killed during olive harvest season (they use automated machines instead of humans and those machines kill a lot of birds).

@rybak are these still protests about the abortion court ruling, or about pandemic restrictions?

It's still about abortion, with every day in each protest is more and more people and in more cities. 

I saw some photos of small protests of our citizens next to our embassies/consulates in several cities like Berlin, London, Manchester, Paris, Oslo, Copenhagen, NYC and even Tbilisi.

 

Our government will probably reintroducted not planned earlier fully lockdown (in last month most of politicans were against this as our economy won't handle it again) from Saturday to stop these protests. And still they will saying that it's about protecting people for faster spreading of virus.

    • That was known from the start for  and will be planned for.   Sadly just the reality of sports in North America. Canada and the US are both huge, a flight from Vancouver to Halifax or from Seattle to Miami is north of five hours. Every sports league in North America has to deal with this kind of travel logistics on the regular, so none of this will seem particularly unusual to a North American player.
    • That’s not a long distance, it’s barely a 2h flight and there is no difference in timezone. Easily doable for fans as well.

    • That's so they can play in both venues in Canada.  Will mean that the UEFA Path A winner has to go from Toronto to Los Angeles and then up to Seattle.   Someone was bound to draw the short straw in that group since 4 of the matches are Central, but 2 are in Santa Clara.  Unfortunately, that's Algeria.
