An investigation has been launched into the deaths of migratory birds including several federally protected golden eagles at the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power’s Pine Tree Wind Project in the Tehachapi Mountains, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Tuesday.
Should the inquiry result in a prosecution, the 120-megawatt facility on 8,000 acres of rugged terrain would be the first wind farm to face charges under the Endangered Species Act, which could cause some rethinking and redesign of this booming alternative energy source.

That is probably the sole reason for the idea of putting wind farms offshore; so when migratory birds get killed by them no one is there to see it and prosecute. Send that windmill to windmill jail? Right!
ban them they are destroying the environment. it is time to return to candlelight and campfires
anon 10:47 I hope your internet works by campfire or candlelight what a dipsh**!!
That is the most Ridiculous thing ever. Only on the Left coast. I am sure it was pointed right at those birds! This is the reason we are in the dark ages now with energy!
