Original: Pour un oiseau, une vitre qui reflète les arbres ou le ciel ressemble à un passage libre. Ce qui marche vraiment : des m
Experts are reminding people that birds crash into windows because reflections of trees and sky look like open space. Measures that genuinely work include dense markings on the outer surface of the glass, spaced no more than 5 cm apart, and switching off unnecessary lights at night.
