Take Action To Prevent Collisions During Global Bird Rescue Week

Global Bird Rescue, a week that shines the spotlight on the catastrophic toll of window collisions, kicks off on September 22. Through September 28, American Bird Conservancy (ABC) invites everyone to join ABC, FLAP Canada, and countless other bird conservation groups and members of the public around the world to rescue and document wild birds that have collided with buildings during their fall migration.

Each year during the peak of fall migration in North America, billions of birds navigate human-made environments as they fly south to warmer environments with more food sources. Unfortunately, millions will not reach their final destinations due to a fatal collision with a building.
