New Bird-Friendly Law in Illinois Calls for Less 'Transparency' in Government Buildings | Chicago News


Nearly 600 million birds are killed each year in North America due to collisions with buildings and not just skyscrapers. Residences up to four stories in height account for 250 million of the 600 million total, according to the National Audubon Society.
Among the major contributors to these deadly crashes: artificial light at night which disorients the birds and glass, due to both its transparency and mirrorlike, reflective properties.
With the stroke of a pen from Gov. J.B. Pritzker, Illinois became the latest entity to enact legislation aimed at stemming the carnage.
Under the Bird Safe Buildings Act, any newly constructed state building will be required to incorporate bird-friendly design. The same rules apply, with a handful of exemptions, to renovations of state buildings in which more than half of the facade is substantially altered.  ....

To save migrating birds, turn off some lights


‘40,000 birds later’
In 1978, Willard, the Field Museum’s collections manager emeritus, heard an offhand remark about birds hitting the McCormick Place, North America’s largest convention center, which is a mile south of the museum. So, he investigated.
“I went down early one morning, just out of curiosity, and wandered around and actually found four or five dead birds,” Willard says. “I might not have gone back if I hadn’t found anything that first day, and now here we are, 40 years later and 40,000 birds later.”
Willard and his colleagues, including Field Museum coauthor Mary Hennen and volunteers from the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors, have visited the site every day before sunrise during migration season, sometimes as early as 3:30 in the morning. ....

Chicago Bird Collision Monitors seeking volunteers for migration season


The DePaulia
Corey Schmidt, Staff Writer|March 14, 2021
The Chicago Bird Collision Monitors (CBCM) is seeking volunteers to walk routes in search of injured birds that may have flown into the city’s tall downtown buildings.
CBCM is a nonprofit organization founded in 2003 with the goal of rescuing birds that were injured or stunned from flying into buildings. These affected birds may not be able to protect themselves from civilians walking downtown and incoming automobile traffic. 
Volunteers are needed to search for injured birds on downtown routes during the early morning hours, as this is when birds are most likely to be found.  ....
