We've all heard it: that heartbreaking "thud" of a bird hitting our window. Did you know it is estimated that this happens somewhere between 100 million and one BILLION times each year in North America?! Last year alone the Wisconsin Humane Society admitted more than 200 birds like Peabody who were involved in window collisions.

Did you also know that our cities present a largely ignored problem to migrating birds? At night, migrating birds collide with lighted window glass or are confused by building lights and circle these buildings until they drop, exhausted, onto one of the city streets below. The next morning, the survivors may either fall victim to urban scavengers or can't find their way out of the canyons of glass, concrete and steel. In confusion, some then collide with windows reflecting the urban landscape.

You can help prevent the loss of our precious songbirds! Click on the panels, above, to find out how!
