Birds striking glass

[Torborg Berge <>]

>Dear Colleagues and All Others Interested in Bird Conservation:
>    I am an ornithologist who has studied the hazardous effects of glass
>on birds for over 25 years. Fundamentally, birds simply do not see glass
>as a barrier and frequently injure or kill themselves striking window
>panes in homes and other buildings. I have for some time been conducting
>a world survey on what bird species have been seen striking glass, and I
>write now to request you share with me any records you might posses of
>bird-glass collisions.
>If you have information you are willing to share, please send it to me
>at my e-mail  or regular mail (D. Klem, Jr.,
>Biology, Muhlenberg College, Allentown PA 18104-5586 USA) addresses. I,
>of course, will be especially grateful for any information you are able
>to share, and I thank you in advance for your attention to this
>important conservation topic.
>
>    Respectfully yours,
>
