World Migratory Bird Day

To commemorate World Migratory Bird Day on May 13th, Safe Wings Ottawa has initiated an informational campaign aimed at reducing bird-glass collisions. You can find their poster at this link. For more comprehensive information on preventing collisions, visit their small-scale solutions webpage at: https://safewings.ca/small-scale-solutions.

Safe Wings Ottawa’s estimations suggest that window collisions in Ottawa cause more than 250,000 bird fatalities each year. The highest number of collisions usually occur within the first four stories of buildings, affecting all types of structures, including private homes and glass deck railings.

Should you encounter an injured or deceased bird, please contact Safe Wings Ottawa at 613-216-8999.
