are never good for birds which is one reason David Sibley has been experimenting with a novel way to make birds aware of his windows (though he concludes that there is a more effective method). But sometimes a window strike can result in an amazing photograph, as Nina of Nature Remains recently found out (make sure you click on the pic to make it big).
Corey is a New Yorker who lived most of his life in upstate New York but has lived in Queens since 2008. He's only been birding since 2005 but has garnered a respectable life list by birding whenever he wasn't working as a union representative or spending time with his family. He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy and Desmond Shearwater. His bird photographs have appeared on the Today Show, in Birding, Living Bird Magazine, Bird Watcher's Digest, and many other fine publications. He is also the author of the American Birding Association Field Guide to the Birds of New York.
We really need to watch our window strikes! I have seen in the past Ruffed Grouse go through garage windows and die instantly! BTW: you seen David’s most recent post? It’s a good one!
