20 April 2024, Brandenburg, Sieversdorf: A red kite (Milvus milvus) flies in front of a wind farm with several wind turbines. Birds of prey such as the red kite, buzzard and white-tailed eagle are particularly at risk. The German Nature and Biodiversity Conservation Union (NABU) estimates that around 100,000 birds are killed by wind turbines every year. Photo: Patrick Pleul/dpa
