NotesCounted 37 different, sequential pylons with nests - excludes adjacent trees and any north of substation. Must be a huge colony, many weavers visible. Power substation coordinates given (Northwards, the railroad line and therefor pylons meanders away from the road ? so cannot count - would need to take a train ride).
