Buildings kill more birds per foot of airspace they use than windmills do. Power lines slightly less by the footage, but by way more in gross numbers.

In other words if you have a windmill the same size a a building, over time the building would kill more birds.

BTW, how many birds (and people) are killed because of dirty power and climate change?

Have you been on a site survey with US Fish and Wildlife, the DOI and the National Audubon Society? I have. Have you handled and banded any birds of prey? I have.
