I was puzzled as well -- couldn't believe there was evidence unless someone 
saw it happen.  Then I read   <http://www.id.blm.gov/techbuls/00_02/part1.pdf> 
and believed it possible.  Even in this study, there seems to be pretty little 
support for the idea of a red-tailed hawk 'flying into a power line' and 
being electrocuted.  Possible through some bird/power mechanism, but probably 
not 
from flyin into the line.
