I see your data clearly presented and submit my anecdotal. Clearly I win and we should burn more coal.

Gotta love that the same guy who keeps complaining about windmills killing birds is the guy who also got famous building a giant glass tower in New York.

Why would anything kill fields for birds though? Let them do their own damn work.

Image wind energy is going to continue increasing exponentially for a while, it would be wise to mitigate the death of more birds. I also support exterminating stray cats and putting harsh fines on folks who keep outside cats as well. Birds need protecting and we are woefully failing as a species to do so.

Non-native lawns are a huge reason for the native bird decline across NA in the last 3 decades.

Non-native cats are multiple orders of magnitudes worse for bird populations. Non-native lawns mainly effect polinators.

Meh with non-native cats over here gone the native cats would do the killing. The reason we spay strays is more to protect wildcats against c competition, they’re not interbreeding much but long-term it’s a concern.
Obligatory picture and another yes they do look quite like domestic ones. Behaviour is quite different, though, particularly they’re impossible to domesticate. Behaviour you’d consider severely fucked-up cat psychology in African wildcats (which are the ones who domesticated themselves by moving into grain storages) are par for the course for European wildcats. They’re not asocial, they’re not broken, they just hate humans.
