Avian avoidance system for wind turbines

A wind turbine apparatus comprising:

• a tower;
• a plurality of blades rotatably mounted relative to said tower, each of said plurality of blades having reflective media on a surface thereof, the reflective media comprising at least a pair of primary colors, each primary color of the pair of primary colors being different from each other, the reflective media of the at least a pair of primary colors on one of said plurality of blades being arranged in an order different than order of the at least a pair of primary colors of an adjacent blade of said plurality of blades;
• the reflective media further comprising a mixed color of white;
• the plurality of blades comprising three blades extending radially outwardly of a rotor, the rotor being supported by said tower, the reflective media comprising:
• a first band of one color of the at least a pair of primary colors, said first band extending across a surface of the blade;
• a second band of another color of the at least a pair of primary colors, the second band extending across the surface of the blade;
• and
• a third band of the mixed color of white, said third band extending across the surface of the blade;
• and
• said first, second and third bands being in spaced relation to each other adjacent to a tip of the blade.
