OSU Installs Bird-Friendly Window Tint!
Dots placed 2" apart makes glass visible to birds & has been shown to reduce collisions by up to 70% in some cases.
Hear Dr. Tim O'Connell & Dr. Scott Loss share with Oklahoma's News 4 https://t.co/0yb2VXnycN

Not only do free-roaming cats have the capacity to be competitors towards native wildlife, what’s perplexing is how the socio-cultural relationship with domestic cats historically provides preference and asylum for these animals that are in fact invasive and harmful to ecosystems
📢Another great opportunity in our lab!!
We're hiring a postdoc to study wind energy & CRP effects/benefits for birds using existing big data
Postdoc will be co-mentored w/ @CDuchardt & collab w/ multi-agency team incl researchers at USDA, USGS & NREL!

🚨New grad position alert!🚨
We're recruiting an MS student to study ways to reduce bird-window collisions
This project w/ @Seiurus lab builds on baseline collision monitoring & is possible thru a major @okstate investment to treat known collision hotspots

Solid Air book excerpt "Among the diverse public, there are those who will be moved to make windows safe for birds because they are mortified at the thought of these attractive animals suffering and dying from a preventable cause."

Want to hear about almost ALL of our research on bird-window collisions over the last 8 years? Check out this webinar I recently gave to @AudubonCentMD featuring the great work of lab alums @coreysriding@siren_la@Elmore_Ecology@gjriggs
@MelissaBreyer @NYCAudubon@3NYWTC@4WTC@wildbirdfund Yikes. I found 4 yesterday and thought that was bad. Different buildings, different cities. This is just demoralizing.
There was a story on @MorningEdition today about the “secret lives” of house cats that are allowed to roam freely. It seemed to celebrate free roaming cats rather than speak to the dangers of letting them outside
