First, I'd want to see a photograph and the timeline-weather at that locale.

Tall communications-towers hidden by fog has killed thousands of nighttime migratory birds at several sites in the US and Canada. (Now-extinct site was www.towerkills.org).

satellite shot (Google maps) doesn't show any towers or other prevalent structures that would bring down the birds along the entire stretch (Ceaser Chavez to 11th St.)

It's clear here. No fog today and there aren't any towers in that area, other than on top of buildings.

I'm no expert, but I don't buy it. I had a lengthy discussion with an environmental engineer that studied the issue at length. He was emphatic about how disappointed he was with the fact birds do not routinely fly into communications towers. He said that he could never find a case where numerous birds where found dead at any one site. He said he researched with all the leading "experts" and none could produce evidence with photos or actual "killer towers". Where they did find dead birds (2-4 at most), they were found to be diseased, old or victims of prey, and never of all of the same species.

I don't know much about it beyond what is stated below.
