For wind turbines at least there's a bit of a difference, as those kill larger birds than cats, in smaller numbers, but those birds also have smaller populations. So just looking at the numbers without knowing the birds and their total populations, makes things hard to compare or judge.

But aren't most larger birds predators that are highly habitat/food supply constrained? That kind of population could be quite resilient to moderate increases in mortality.

(I might be assigning far more importance to predator-Peru cycles than is warranted though, I was reading about what I now found is called https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotka%E2%80%93Volterra_equatio... at a very young age and the concept stuck for life)

Sure, thought needs to go into the location of these things; avoiding migration routes and habitats of endangered birds. Using scarecrows and possible trained predator birds (presuming these can be trained to avoid the danger zone!) etc.

Of course conventional industry doesn't get a free pass here either, treatment and storage ponds, climate change, habitat destruction etc.
