This Orange-crowned #Warbler came to us after a window collision and was able to be released just a few hours later!
You can make simple changes at home, like adding decals or making windows more visible, to help prevent collisions and keep birds safe. #helping #WindowCollision

Last week, a Varied Thrush came to the Alaska Raptor Center after a window collision.
Window strikes are common, but preventable. Adding decals or UV window reflectors helps birds see glass and stay safe. Small changes can save lives. #YouCanHelp #Thrush #WindowCollision

📣 New Blog Post! 📣
Birds can't see glass and often mistake reflections of the sky or trees for safe spaces, making windows a hazard—especially during #fallmigration. 🪟

RIP Flaco… 💔 I guess we all knew this day would come one day but the same week we lost Rover? It’s too sad. These birds gave us so much joy. We must do better to protect our feathered friends in future. #birdcpp #flaco #BirdsSeenin2023 #windowcollision

We are heartbroken to report that Flaco the Eurasian Eagle-Owl has died tonight "after an apparent collision with a building on West 89th Street in Manhattan."

Meet Owen Wilson Snipe! Owen had a close encounter with a window but was found by one of our dedicated volunteers. Right now, Owen is resting comfortably in our ICU. We're hoping for a speedy recovery so Owen can return to the wild. #AnimalRescue #OwenWilsonSnipe #WindowCollision

The first bird-window collision case that I observed on campus after my vacation-- a Northern Waterthrush. 😢
The fall migration will start, and I hope there is not a lot of poor little guy. 🙏

Your point stands –– it's refreshing to know that we can count on #BigOil to spend at least as much on helping us solve the #WindowCollision and #CatPredation problem as they do telling us that "renewables kill birds!"

Shared in a short article in my website to make others aware. Quoted you. And your picture. Hope it’s ok. “Not rocket science” like you said. Thanks, Melissa 💔 #turnOffTheLights #please #birds #migratoryBirds #migratingSeason #windowCollision

160 Elgin has lots of glass, yet our volunteers have never found a #windowcollision here. Why? Because densely patterned #birdsafe glass works! We'd love to see more of it in #Ottawa and #Gatineau.

Today we dispatched a volunteer to @OCTranspo Blair Station to pick up 2 apparent #WindowCollision birds.
Also a fish, which led to intense speculation as we waited impatiently for photos from Melissa (who once found a trapped hawk that was in fact a groundhog true story).

We are so self centered that I keep seeing people tweeting about how birds commit suicide against their windows... like really? 🙄 #windowstrike #windowcollision

We were this many days old when we learned that Belted Kingfishers sometimes regurgitate the bones of their prey. (That's just a few. There was a whole pile but we shook out the bedding before realizing what they were.) #windowcollision #ottbird

We wish this amazing #Canadian product were much more widely available. Wouldn't @FeatherFriendly kits be a great fit for @LeeValleyTools, @RitchieFeedInc, @CanadianTire, @HomeDepotCanada, @Lowes_Canada, #HomeHardware & #WildBirdsUnlimited stores? Where else? #windowcollision

Just because temperatures are dropping, it doesn’t mean that bird collision rates are. With bird fatalities on the rise, it’s important to help vulnerable species make their way South this fall. Visit our website for commercial and residential options: bit.ly/34YzUEU

I'd like a content warning for every post about a #windowcollision bird that the finder declares is fine because it eventually flew away. Extra content warnings when the OP describes the experience as "special" or "a privilege", ignores advice to ... 1/2
