We have a number of birds crashing into our windows, throughout the day and
throughout the year. We've moved the bird feeder as far away as feasible (we
have a very shallow yard) and would prefer not to remove it altogether.
We've tried hanging ribbons, reflective twirly things from Wild Birds
Unlimited, decals, etc., all without success.
We are thinking of installing some kind of mesh or screening on the outside
of our windows. Has anyone done something like this? Did it work? What
kind of material is suggested? We'd like something that would allow light
in and our view out. Any ideas?
Thanks.
