    I'm sorry I am late in responding. I received no notification that there were comments. Amy, They say it will eventually wash off in the rain in 2-3 montsh. I actually put some up today and will monitor how long it lasts. David, Yes the birds see the UV unlike us. Here is a good video showing the liquid I used. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBOeLUsJaos

    Hi Becky! How will the UV liquid work. Will it reflect UV, and can the birds see the UV?

About This Project

Across North America, close to 1 billion birds are killed each year as a result of window collisions. Birds often crash into windows because they see the reflecting trees and sky, but not the glass. This project will collect data to gain a better understanding of bird-window collisions in a suburban setting. Yes, we can save birds from flying into windows - we just need to educate people and empower them to take action.
Blast off!
