    A bird on a windowsill. Protect Local and Migratory Birds From Glass Collisions Studies suggest upwards of 1 billion birds die from glass collisions annually in the US alone. Here's what you can do to help prevent bird strikes into your home or built environment. SHOP BIRD SAFETY COLLECTION A feather imprint on a window from a bird strike. Why Do Birds Strike Glass? Birds simply cannot see glass. The reflective, transparent nature of uncoated glass makes it virtually imperceptible to birds. What they see is one of two things: a reflection of the open air behind them, or a clear sight line to what's on the other side. How Can Strikes Be Prevented? The best way to prevent bird strikes is to make glass surfaces visible. We know that birds will not fly through spaces that are smaller than their body width. To make glass more visible to birds, densely decorated patterns such as our Ashley Cecily designs or Solyx® horizontal bars and dot patterns offer a visual break at least every 2 inches. This ensures the bird perceives the area as too small for passage. Shades, blinds, and curtains are not suitable replacements for an exterior applied product; they may block visibility through the glass, but fail to reduce its reflectiveness.
