Join in for an evening webinar about how to save birds from colliding with windows in cities and rural areas. This event is coordinated by students in Adena Rissman’s (UW-Madison’s Forest and Wildlife Ecology) graduate seminar.
Close to one billion birds are killed each year in the United States when they collide with windows in our homes and offices. Yet the solutions are surprisingly simple. Join our community member and expert panel to learn more about the easy-to-install window films, innovative technology, and new city building policies that can save birds in your backyard and community.
