An image of the wind turbines in Wyoming, USA
A wind turbine is a rotating machine which converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, wind power unit (WPU), wind energy converter (WEC), oraerogenerator. wikipedia!

this is what our country side is going to look like shortly as there has been a wind farm approved for here, in our bush town..48 of them.:)) k

This is in an area where the wind always blows. 48 are you happy about that? they are so big… they have their own kind of beauty if they aren’t really close to homes and such. thanks for looking!

not really hapy at all about this as its within 1 k of homes and its estimated to kill 5500 birds per blade per year, and they find that acceptable, they are going to be 130 meters high and 9 meter blades, the tallest in australia, definitely the wrong place for them to be put..i am not against them if placed in the appropriate spots..these are small in comparison, they are due to start building them shortly..thanks :)) k

A great shot! Love the ‘folds’ of green grass.

I”m so glad you like it! The landscape of the grass was the main reason I decided ot upload this not so much as to show off the wind turbines. I’m glad you saw that. Thanks so much!!
