In all fairness, solar panels don't bother birds any than tar roofs. In this case we have a field of mirrors (not solar panels) which reflect the sunlight to converge on a focal point in order to heat a fluid to drive turbines. Any object that enters the flux at the focal point is burned to a crisp. This solar power plant is pretty much an economic failure as massive quantities of natural gas are burned at night to keep the system going in darkness.
