Does it count as a kill if there is no evidence left?
"Ivanpah employees and OLE staff noticed that close to the periphery of the
tower and within the reflected solar field area, streams of smoke arise
when an object crosses the solar flux fields aimed at the tower. Ivanpah
employees use the

It is a little more complex. There is a distance

LOL! I remember one:
In 1958, the science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke published "A

Close to the tower it would be. When a bird flies a few meters away
In high winds, mirrors go to flat position and all of the flux goes
incident and airborne. Ivanpah is a high wind area.
