Researchers found that painting #wind turbine blades with patterns inspired by venomous #snakes significantly reduces #bird collisions.While standard white blades are often difficult for #birds to perceive, the biomimetic designs trigger a natural avoidance response. The simple visual modification offers a promising way to protect migratory species while expanding sustainable #energy.
