Well I'm glad to see someone is interested in the spirit of discussion.
My comment was about the disruption of the food chain. 33k bird deaths do not come close to having the effect described. If the number of windmills were scaled up (not to match the number of windows, that would be silly), I still don't see it coming close to having a disruptive effect.
You are right that it's not a simple 1:1 comparison, as the types of birds, locations, concentrations, etc will vary, but the staggering difference in numbers really does make one consider whether the number is even worth considering. All that to say, I haven't been convinced of windmills bringing about doomsday.
