This is one of the fastest ways to roast a turkey ever invented ... just toss bird into the air and ready to snack on when in lands.

Easy solution. Ban use of the facility between 9 am and 6 pm. Should cut down on bird injuries.

Warning. Solar farms cause global warning. High heat kills wildlife and plant life. We are doomed.

Poor Birds!

If you happen to be driving from So. Cal to Vegas-the road goes by that thing- It's creepy looking, and a total blight on the desert landscape.

"The plants is located on five square miles of the Mojave Desert,..."

They is! And a desert is the right kind of place to find that there "thermal flux" disease. Environmentalists who want to protest there should bring plenty of Brawndo! It's got electrolytes!

It would now be fitting for Barry Whoseanus Obango, queen of the Nairobi bathhouse showers, to conduct a close aerial inspection of Ivanpah, from an ultralight, no less. These fricking fascist greenies have no shame, none, zip. The names and addresses of all of the corporate and political perps should be placed on the net.

I remember when the "environmentalists" ran the taxpayers and their toys out of the Mohave area because it was so sensitive to the animals and environment.

Now look what they have done with it. I guess it all makes sense now.

And let’s not forget all the migrating birds murdered by the greenies at wind farms!

Funny how “environmentalists” always manage to screw up everything they claim to be trying to help. But that’s OK, they’re leftists, and they meant well.

That would certainly make all those dead birds feel good, if only they weren’t dead.

“Look! Up in the sky!”
“It’s a bird!”
“It’s a plane!”
“OMG! They’re in flames!”
Birds and planes going up in flames,
Our Far Left friends still going insane.

I could have told them that. Next time, ask me first and save yourselves a lot of money.
