They are more likely wind deflectors, so the wires do not whip 
&=C2=A0twist, (like a skipping rope). Wider at the wire and pointed towards=
 
the ground, (if no wind), works like a flag. You see them in high wind 
areas.

These birds accidentally hit the high tension wires above and are injured. 
In order to alleviate this problem, over the last few days, a 
helicopter was used to drop a man down to the overhead ground wire 
whereon he has affixed =E2=80=9Cbird deflectors=E2=80=9D. 
My friend can only describe these deflectors as pieces of metal 
attached to the wire.

Would anyone know what these deflectors are and how they work?
