20pp. http://dnr.state.il.us/publications/pdf/00000544.pdf This report to the Governor presents the main point of concern with respect to the effects of wind energy development on wildlife in Illinois. It recommends that regulatory action for wildlife protection not be taken until the impacts are studied and better understood.

Osborn, Robert G et al. 1998. Bird flight characteristics near wind turbines in Minnesota. American Midland Naturalist; 139(1): 29-38.

This article estimates the threat posed by the Buffalo Ridge Wind Resource Area to resident or migrating birds.

Osborn, Robert G and Kenneth F Higgins. 2000. Bird mortality associated with wind turbines at the Buffalo Ridge Wind Resource Area, Minnesota. American Midland Naturalist; 143(1): 41-52.

This study assesses the effects of a southwester Minnesota wind farm projects on birds and concludes that windmills do not appear to be more detrimental to birds than other man-made structures.
