Thanks for this link! I started poking through te list and there was a Great Horned that flew into a window and smacked it’s head really bad. The rescue center made numerous posts and in one, linked to a site that makes safety tape for windows…
The claim is that a billion birds fly into windos every year and too many get killed. The safety tape is called Feather Friendly and it’s cool that people are working to save birds this way… I witnessed an Indigo Bunting kill itself flying into a window and it was heartbreaking to see such a beautiful animal lose it’s life that way. :(
It’s really sad to consider the hazards our lifestyles pose to animals. Windows, cars, soccer nets, decorations, dirty bird feeders and baths, loose pets, and so much more.
Over 90 percent of wildlife rehab animals are in due to human related causes, not from things just going on out in nature. Anything we can do to mitigate our potential damage to wildlife is so immensely helpful!

Definitely. I had a Hawk attempt to hunt my Dachshund that was sleeping by the front window and well… it’s surprising how heavy Hawks are.
