Window strikes are still a top 3 issue, but with over twice as many attributable deaths, outdoor cats are literally the significantly larger problem. Why needlessly downplay the top cause of avian deaths? Just seems weird.

No birds in 3 weeks and it was a daily occurrence. THANKS.

Twill have to see if that works : ) also thought of using a clear squishy soft silicone material as window film to act like a landing cushion… too bad I don’t know where you find material like that that would stick onto the window and stay. : /
