I don't see how they could kill birds anymore than trees do. Birds have pretty good eyesight in many cases better than humans I can't reasonably see why wind turbines would be any more of a threat than any other structure natural or organic.
The blades move a lot faster than trees or branches do, especially at the tips. I would guess that is mostly a miscalculation on the birds part, as in "oh this is open air, I'll fly right through" and the blade comes and hits them
