Sadly more birds probably died because of habitat disruption caused by the building of the solar facility. Those things don’t exactly have a small footprint, ya’ know.

The Topaz Solar Farm (shown) has gone online in California's Carrizo Plain.
How will the birds be directed away from this furnace/assured death.

At least a jet engine plucks them before they’re cooked.

These birds are not being killed. It’s not an oil company.

I bet some government funded research comes out showing that solar farms are completely safe for birds, but cows are bad for turtles.

Hell of a lot of effort just to melt salt and fry endangered species.
But gotta save the planet, right?

And for context, just how many millions of birds are killed by housecats every year?

Do burning birds create pollution and greenhouse gasses?
And how are they fixing this problem? Warning signs?

If I kill a crow with a bb gun, I get a hefty fine and possible jail time. If a politically favored solar-power plant or wind farm kills 100 eagles, they get a waiver. Such is life under Obama.

130 birds caught fire mid-air while entering an area of concentrated solar energy... In a test, one third of the project’s 10,000 mirrors were moved to focus sunlight at a point 1,200 feet above ground level – at approximately twice the height of its tower.
It took biologists just an hour and a half to notice the first of the ‘streamers’ – birds that catch fire and leave a trail of smoke in the air -when entering the field of solar energy.
I would like to propose this as an environmentally sound method of executing death row residents.
Screamer streamers - kind of like the sound of that.

Reminds me of jet exhaust frying chickens in the barnyard, or torching ants with a magnifying glass.
