Cameras bolted to two turbines off the Kent coast recorded 606,554 videos across two years of fieldwork, 12,131 of them with a bird in the frame, and the entire archive held 6 collisions, every one in daylight and not one in the 48,000 clips shot after dark.

Off the coast of Margate, Kent, 100 turbines turn inside the Thanet Offshore Wind Farm, a 300-megawatt array built in 2010 about 12 kilometers from shore.
For nearly two years, cameras bolted to two of those turbines recorded almost every bird that came close enough to matter, producing one of the largest camera-based datasets ever assembled on how seabirds behave around offshore turbines. The results, published in the final report of the Offshore Renewables Joint Industry Programme’s Bird
