Wow, this is way more interesting than I was hoping for when I clicked on this link. Identifying birds computationally is an enormously tricky problem, but because they're tasked with reducing wind turbine's killing protected species their focus is almost exclusively on raptors, which is an much easier nut to crack. Even if you can't always separate a highly protect species (ex: Golden Eagle) from a similar looking, less protected species (Ex. Turkey Vulture) 100% of the time you should be able err on the side of caution and reduce mortality events.
