At least 961 birds died in one night after crashing into the windows of a building in Chicago. “I’ve been in Chicago for 40 years and bird-watch all the time and I’ve never, ever seen anything like that,” a conservation ecologist said. https://t.co/sITFmkts3j

[Marky Mutchler @MarkyMutchler]

You ever wondered what a couple seconds of a tiny portion of sky would look like during a morning with 180,000+ migrating warblers?

That’s oddly specific, but wonder no more!

[Chicago Tribune @chicagotribune]

At least 960 migrating birds, the highest number on record, died Thursday in “massive carnage” at McCormick Place Lakeside Center, according to David Willard, a retired bird division collections manager at the Field Museum.

Please help us, @ChicagosMayor and @ChicagoDOB. Each and every one of the 1,000+ birds killed in Chicago today are protected under federal law. Chicago is in violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
