Forget about the dangers of coal seam gas drilling, because a new bogeyman has come to the gas industry.

The concern is that there is a risk, during flares of natural gas from any of the three plants on the island, that migrating birds will attempt to fly through the flames and be incinerated.
Thankfully, a local birdwatcher told the Gladstone Observer that such an occurrence would be unlikely.
However, the newspaper also pointed out that a large number of migrating songbirds (10,000, more commonly reported to be 7500) were killed in a gas flare in Canada last September.
