Description:
 Smack! That's the sound of a bird hitting a window—and you've probably heard it often.
Collisions with windows cause millions of bird fatalities every year. Luke DeGroote will discuss how Carnegie Museum of Natural History is addressing the issue by elucidating where collisions are more likely to occur, testing collision reducing markers at Powdermill Nature Reserve’s experimental flight tunnel, tracking post-collision survival using new technologies, and reducing collisions through community engagement.
We are resuming our popular science lecture series! All are welcome!
