The Invisible Barrier Blueprint
Ultimate Window Strike Prevention Guide for Bird-Safe Homes
Up to a billion birds a year die on glass, and most of the fixes people try don't work. 10 modules on why birds see sky in a window, the 2x4 rule for dots and decals, paracord Zen curtains, UV tapes and liquids, moving the houseplants, lights out during migration, the 3-foot-or-30-foot feeder rule, angled and patterned glass, handling a dead bird safely and legally, and logging strikes for science.
About this course
The single hawk silhouette on your window has saved exactly zero birds, and this course explains why before it fixes it. You'll learn how a bird sees reflected trees and sky in glass as open air, why markers only work on the outside and only when spaced no more than 2 inches by 4 inches apart, how a curtain of paracords sways just enough to be seen, why UV films glow for birds and stay invisible to you, why the ficus by the window is a trap, how your lights at 11 pm disorient migrating songbirds, why a feeder goes within 3 feet of the glass or more than 30 feet from it and never in between, what architects do with angled and patterned glass, how to handle a dead bird safely and why you can't keep it, and how logging strikes helps scientists map the danger.
