    This problem will solve itself in a few thousand generations, if it's actually a problem for the bird species.
    .
    It also points out what a bunch of vapid imbeciles the anti-wind farm "environmentalists" are.

    And then there's the whole issue of lights being left on in high-rises at night. They actually attract birds (it's not just moths, I guess) and cause more of them to crash into windows than they otherwise would.

    I'm doing my part by not washing my windows. The only reason my windows are not washed is to prevent disasters such as this. I swear!

    @sonicsurge: If that’s the case, than we’re killing off the stupid, poorly-coordinated ones.
    Soon the next stage of avian evolution will emerge. Their first action will be to avenge their window-felled birdy brethren.
