Protecting Birds During Spring Migration with Dr. Daniel Klem
Spring migration has begun and we have highly-renowned ornithologist Dr. Daniel Klem, Jr. with us to talk about his brand-new book on preventing bird window strikes, Solid Air -- Invisible Killer: Saving Billions Of Birds From Windows. He tells us about his top three deterrents for preventing bird window strikes. His book can be ordered at tinyurl.com/56r49w93 or go to: danielklemjr.org. Did you know that 44% of all bird collisions with glass occur at your average home? For more info go to: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gJmBLFnAa4 and www.youtube.com/watch?v=69LiMbvuU3g.
