The Problem with Birds and Windows: Studying and Reducing Bird-Window Collisions
April 10, 2025 @ 11:30 am - 1:30 pm
$45.00
Presented by: Brenna Marsicek, Director of Outreach, Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance (formerly Madison Audubon).
Up to a billion birds die every year in the US after hitting windows, and almost half of those happen at homes. The good news is that the solutions are easy and affordable! This seminar will share some science behind why birds hit windows, how a local citizen science group is studying the problem and provide recommendations on ways to address problem windows at home to make them more bird-safe.
Luncheon-Lectures are held in the Arboretum Visitor Center Auditorium. A buffet lunch is followed by the educational presentation. Each lecture costs $45.
