Nowhere in the article do they quantify the annual kill. Fail.

Other reports on the “take” program show five eagles a year are potentially killed or maimed (and later die) by each of these monstrosities.

Owning a fleet of these windmills is hugely profitable. Our government basically underwrites financing and guarantees the sale of energy to the utility at the highest price possible. And, after they're built, owners have little ongoing expense except maintenance. No coal or gas bill to pay.

You'd think with all these benefits, they'd prevent the killing of birds and bats.
