“…These structures can pose a significant threat to migrant songbirds, particularly during takeoffs, landings, and short flights (Crawford and Engstrom 2001, Hüppop et al 2006, Longcore et al 2012. In turn, predictable differences in behavior-as observed in the present study-can lead to systematic differences in risk and possible implications for population dynamics (Cristol et al 1999, Mehlman et al 2005, Longcore and Smith 2013 …”

“…125 season with >10 visits (i.e., at least fall and spring, or two falls), (3) tower height was provided, and (4) total number of birds killed was provided. To calculate annual mortality, we assumed that fall surveys constituted 75% of a year and that spring surveys constituted 25% (Crawford and Engstrom 2001). For each study or set of studies at the same location, we recorded mean annual mortality (total kill divided by number of years), the number of years of the study, tower height (m), and the presence and number of sets of guy wires and the presence and type of lighting if provided.…”

“…Bird collisions with artificial structures and associated fatalities have been documented in the U.S. since the late 1880's (Crawford and Engstrom 2000). A large amount of published and unpublished literature exists on avian collisions with artificial structures and vehicles.…”

“…The research at Eau Claire, Wisconsin, was the longest study conducted at any one tower and covered the period from 1957 to 1994 (38 years). Two other continuous studies at individual communication towers include a study that took place from 1960 to 1997 (37 years) at a 1,368-ft (417-m) tower in Nashville, Tennessee (Nehring 2000), and another study that took place at a 1,010-ft (308-m) tower from 1955 to 1983 (28 years) at Tall Timbers Research Station in Tallahassee, Florida (Crawford and Engstrom 2000).…”
