About the Event
Did you know that nearly 1 billion birds die annually in North America due to window collisions, and 99% of those occur at residential and low-rise buildings? An Acopian BirdSaver is one of the most effective and affordable ways to prevent bird collisions at home.
Join Wild Birds Unlimited and TCA for a hands-on workshop dedicated to making our community safer for our feathered neighbors. During this workshop, you’ll create an Acopian BirdSaver and take one blind home to install.
What to Expect
Learn: Discover why birds hit windows and how simple changes at home can save lives.
Create: Build your own Acopian BirdSaver (an effective paracord window treatment) to take home.
Materials: Each household can make one blind based on their window measurements to install at home.
Why Attend? Window collisions are the second leading cause of bird mortality in North America. Most of these deaths are preventable with simple actions at the individual level.
