It kills the sea birds. If the oil gets into the feathers, it damages their waterproofing, meaning the bird gets waterlogged, very cold and ulimately dies. In addition, large amounts of oil can simply clog up their ability to fly. finally, seabirds depend on fish and aquatic animals for food, so if the oil kills their food source, they starve.
