There are old wind farms in America that look like this... link Not only are they an obstacle course for birds, but the pylons provide roosting places that attract birds. I think it's reasonable to expect a lot less harm to birds from the modern wind turbines we have in Australia. Especially to orange bellied parrots that fly barely above the ground. Had a lecture the other night from the one of the engineers who set up the new wind farm just NW of Ballarat. He reckoned that the locals were very happy and that it's just not worth the hastle to have to deal with hostile land owners. Wind farms can go where people appreciate the money and everyone's happy.
