Saw this massive bird today. Pretty sure it's a peregrine falcon. It started flying as soon as I got my phone out, I'm glad I could snap these! Sucker was probably around 18 inches tall standing up. #birdsofmastodon

Birds vs. Wind Turbines: New Research Aims to Prevent Deaths
Window collisions and cats kill more birds than wind farms do, but ornithologists say turbine impacts must be taken seriously. Scientists are testing a range of technologies to reduce bird strikes — from painting stripes to using artificial intelligence — to keep birds safe.
