Saving Birds from Window Strikes
Help save birds from flying in to windows and injuring themselves. Every year millions of birds in the US are killed by colliding with windows reflecting nearby vegetation. Volunteers will help install window treatments on office building windows. Applying a pattern of dot stickers to outside windows breaks up the reflection of trees and helps birds avoid flying into window glass they otherwise do not see.

Event details

Volunteers will help install anti-bird-strike window treatments on a one-story office building windows. Applying a pattern of dot stickers to outside windows breaks up the reflection of trees and helps birds avoid flying into window glass they otherwise do not see.

Volunteers will use short step-ladders and measuring tape to apply a grid of dot stickers across the entire widow. Participants will see firsthand how easy the stickers are to apply and how well they look from inside the building. Window stickers are an easy and affordable solution to bird strikes that can be applied on commercial buildings and private homes. We encourage others to help save birds from collision and death by sharing information and applying stickers to windows that are a risk to birds.
