a bunch of birds on overhead wires for electric trains

touching that is definitely not recommended for a human on a ladder

These birds are hanging out on the #CalTrain overhead wires. 25kV, but they're not grounded, and they don't care.
I don't think the upper wire (messenger) is isolated from the contact wire.
And that one bird is brazenly sitting right on the contact wire.
