what can be done to reduce these bird strikes? that is inexpensive?
Hi David, reducing window strikes can be easy if you shut down blinds or pur up UV reflective stickers (like those sold at http://www.windowalert.com/). For larger buildings, however, the windows need to be retrofitted with UV reflective coating, or with line patterns; or they can be included in the glass from the beginning. The key is to have UV reflective coating that birds see but we don’t. It is actually not as expensive as one might think. Thanks for your interest
