Bird-Window Collision Presentations
The Bird-window Collision Working Group (BCWG) has developed an outreach program intended to address and reduce avian mortality at residential and low-rise buildings. Through this program, volunteers have been trained to engage community members in understanding more about bird-window collisions and ways they can be prevented. See the list of past and upcoming presentations below.
