There's a 1300-acre photovoltaic plant in San Benito County that sits on a 5000-acre wildlife preserve. It's a bit of a natural experiment in that area.

Once you consider heat from the sun, and hunting birds looking at small prey in open fields I would not be surprised that the panels provide shelter that the wildlife uses.
