Trumpy,
Though I did not get pics, I've had outages due to squirrels, birds, snakes, and all manner of vermin.
Fires caused by these are not uncommon, the worst was a raccoon that burned nearly an acre before I could get into replace the fuses.
Not unusual to see birds on separate insulators begin pecking at each other and end up crispy critters. After the 'coon the worst fire I've ever had to rebuild lines for was one where the birds started it, musta been at least 30 carcasses with that one.
