All tall structures kill birds, whether they be skyscrapers or nuclear power 
plants.   The two smokestacks of the Lennox Generating Station near Kingston, 
Ontario, killed more than 22,000 birds over a 10 year period.

Hallo all,

Charles, there are lots of websites on the net. Just type "Wind turbines
bird deaths" into Google and you will find lots of information. Here in
Norway the so called green and environmental friendly wind turbines on the
island of Smola have killed 15 White-tailed Eagles.

Regards,

Eddie Chapman, Voss. Norway.
