We have a large plate glass window in the front of our home. Although I love the light and view from the window, some of the small birds nesting around the house have made the fatal mistake of flying into the glass. I am searching for ways to prevent future bird fatalities, because it truly bothers me that these beautiful creatures are taken away. I can’t help myself though. When I find them in the driveway, I have to pick them up and study them. They are tiny and delicate and I’m drawn to them… wanting to study their feathers and leathery feet… the delicate layers of their wings.

Farewell little bird. Fly away home.
