I think most bird strikes (daytime) are a result of the bird being able to see through the window to another window and they think they can fly through the 'tunnel'. If one of the windows is darkened slightly with curtains or a blind, birds will usually not fly into either one. |

Crystals in my window did not work. I thought they would too. Nope. My windows reflect the yards perfectly when the sun is shining. When it isn't no birds crash. http://www.allaboutbirds.org/Page.aspx?pid=1184 ..........when birds crash windows because they see reflections of the landscape—trees, sky, clouds—on the glass surface, they see through the glass to potted plants indoors, or they see the landscape on the other side of the building through a second window. |
