The other species of small migratory
birds found on the site in October, though fewer in number, serve to amplify
concerns about the technology's impact on wildlife. The black-and-white warbler
mortality is especially unusual: the species is not usually present in
California as either a resident or a migrant. Townsend's warblers' annual
migration can take them as far as between the Yukon and Panama. Wilson's
warblers go as far north as northern Alaska in summer, and head for places like
Nicaragua when the snows start to fly.Losing one each of those species at ISEGS
is no huge deal in a broad ecological sense, though each individual mortality is
a violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) punishable by $500 in fines
and six months in jail. Migration is a dangerous pastime for birds, and many die
from its rigors.But ISEGS is a new kind of technology that its proponents, and
proponents of similar projects such as the Crescent Dunes project being built
near Tonopah, NV seek to increase across the desert. If the USFWS's suspicions
are correct that solar power tower plants may pose what's called an
"environmental trap" (and which USFWS is not calling a "funnel effect"), in
which the projects attract insects that attract birds and other animals, then
building such plants across the desert, with designs larger, taller,Many acne

Ivanpah's, could well pose a serious long-term threat to migratory bird
populations.
Which means that solar plants in the California desert
could well depress bird populations from the Arctic to the Panama Canal.Of the
52 birds reported dead at ISEGS in October, 32 are now in the hands of USFWS's
Law Enforcement division. They aren't the first dead birds USFWS Law Enforcement
has taken from Ivanpah: between the commencement of construction and September
19 of this year,You can also benefit by installing other parts or gadgets which

dead birds off BrightSource's hands for investigation.And October's haul will
likely not be the last, as ISEGS gears up to go online by the end of the year.
Currently, solar flux is only generated during periodic testing. When that flux
is hot throughout the daylight hours, the risk to wildlife whether local, or
just passing by from 4,000 miles away will only increase.The bags and boxes of
