That entire area is now covered with them in every direction. I have a short video from that day. I’ll try to post it if it’s not too large.

They are fairly quiet while turning. There was a documentary in 2010 called “Windfall” that discussed the health issues when wind turbines are placed to close to homes. They seem harmless, but aren’t. I can’t find a trailer for it. The M5M made fun of that film…of course.
