The refuge fields with their favoured feeding crops are closer to the birds\u2019 night nest, reducing their travel time and subsequent risks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1rem; padding: 0px; outline-width: 0px; border-width: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 1.1rem; font-family: 'Bliss Light', 'Gill Sans', Calibri, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 100; line-height: 1.6; text-align: left; color: #6a737b;\">Such has been the success of the new goose refuge that so far an average of 7,187 birds have been drawn to the new area after the completion of the wind farm, compared to 1,420 prior to the refuge being established.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1rem; padding: 0px; outline-width: 0px; border-width: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 1.1rem; font-family: 'Bliss Light', 'Gill Sans', Calibri, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 100; line-height: 1.6; text-align: left; color: #6a737b;\">Andy Chinery, Asset Manager at Jack\u2019s Lane Wind Farm said: \u201cSustainability is at the core of what we do, aiming to provide safe, clean energy across the world, while ensuring we protect the local environment and its wildlife. It\u2019s for that reason we are so pleased with the results of the refuge so far.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1rem; padding: 0px; outline-width: 0px; border-width: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-size: 1.1rem; font-family: 'Bliss Light', 'Gill Sans', Calibri, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 100; line-height: 1.6; text-align: left; color: #6a737b;\">Pink-footed geese and their use of the area around the wind farm was a key topic of interest for local residents during the development of Jacks Lane.
