If reduced population size was a contributing factor to mortality
reduction then mortality rates would have been falling before they
changed their processes.

I wonder how much of the reduction was due to the smaller population each year due to the mortalities at the wind generators. If you keep killing that many birds you are going to have a smaller population to kill next year. I am still not satisfied that the situation is 'acceptable!!'
