Bird guides, binoulars and ballistics keep the birds at bay

Dave Tresham, United States Department of Agriculture wildlife biologist, disperses birds settling in an area known as the "Green Mile," a manmade sewage runoff expanse with a lush, green environment that provides food, water and shelter attractive to wild animals at an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia, Sept. 3, 2015. Tresham uses pyrotechnics and sometime lethal removal multiple times per day to disperse birds and other creatures away to minimize the strike hazard to aircraft supporting the mission to destroy and degrade the Islamic State.
