Safe for birds? Good question.
Will mammals ever stop being road-kill?
The amount of time automobiles have been killing deer is too short in evolutionary terms to turn out a more favorable result.
But there's a glimmer of hope.
You know how lobster traps work?
It's a funnel made of netting.
The lobsters can find their way in, but they can't find their way out ...
UNTIL !!
a few years ago I read an article that documented a lobster that got into a lobster trap, and then escaped from it.
It might have been a fluke.
BUT !!
It may also have been a documented step in evolutionary development of lobsters.
Raptors aren't accustomed to keeping a wary eye for dangers while they're looking for a place to stop for lunch, because they're the top of their food chain.
But perhaps like the lobsters mentioned above, birds will learn to be wary, and survive wind-turbines. (& maybe deer avoiding Hyundais?)
