Abstract
In December of 2002, a modern, tall wind turbine was installed at Exhibition Place close to the lakeshore, in downtown Toronto. This was a joint venture of Toronto Hydro and Windshare, with the cooperation of Exhibition Place. By the close of 2003, this turbine had generated more than one million kilowatt hours of electricity for the city. This paper presents the results of a bird monitoring program undertaken in 2003 to assess the potential impact of the turbine on bird populations.
