The risks to bird life from wind farms are generally considered minimal due to several mitigating factors. Modern wind farm planning incorporates careful site selection to avoid placing wind turbines in known flight paths and areas where there is high avian activity, and environmental impact assessments are conducted to understand and address potential concerns. Furthermore, ongoing research contributes to a better understanding of bird behaviour and migration patterns, facilitating the development of effective mitigation strategies. While bird collisions with turbine blades do occasionally occur, the overall impact on bird populations is comparatively low when compared to other threats, such as building collisions, domestic cats, and vehicle strikes. The wind industry remains committed to sustainability and wildlife conservation, continuously refining practices to further reduce any potential risks to birdlife.
