Thanks for posting this Dan.

We¡¯re continuing to encourage people to take action to protect birds from window strikes which is one of the top sources of human-caused bird mortality, despite being easily preventable.

Feather Friendly has introduced a new ¡®Pro¡¯ product which enables you to install 5 rows of dots at a time rather than the previous single row product which was laborious especially with larger windows.

We have installed this on one large window at home ¨C it did require two people to install it and a fair amount of patience, but once you get the hang of it installed fairly quickly. If the DIY approach doesn¡¯t work for you there are local installers who will provide a free quote.

I know one of the things people are concerned with is the esthetics of treated windows so have attached a few photos showing the window from inside and out:

If we all take action with problem windows, we can significantly reduce the number of birds that die needlessly each year from window strikes in Canada, which according to the Government of Canada, kill up to 42 million birds a year and over a billion birds in NA!

Thanks again.
