Hello OCEES,
Our lab is continuing our Bird Building Collision Monitoring Program and would love your help! We have a new email (User: Bird Collision Monitoring, collisions at ohio.edu 
<mailto: collisions at ohio.edu 
> )that will facilitate communication with our team. Find out more below and email us if you have any questions!.

> Monitoring Program on OU Athens Campus

  *   Did you know that approximately 1 BILLION birds die each year from collisions with windows and buildings?
  *   Birds collide with glass because they see the world differently than people do.
  *   Bird building collisions are a leading cause of mortality in birds, and we can do something about this conservation issue!
  *   There are many tools to prevent bird building collisions and associated mortality.
  *   Determining what buildings and glass surfaces contribute to bird collisions is a first step in reducing mortality.
  *   Our lab is monitoring several buildings on OU’s Athens Campus including Porter, Grover, Walter Field House, Walter Hall, Ping, Tanaka, Carr, Sowle, Luchs, Clippinger, New Chemistry Building, Alden, Irvine, Schoonover, Heritage
  *   You can help us by signing up to monitor additional buildings on campus< https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fspreadsheets%2Fd%2F1RsOXiAjOCfydtWEjUODyIC8K9oB7Jwf3f4I9XFXS_is%2Fedit%3Fusp%3Dsharing&data=05%7C02%7Cocees%40listserv.ohio.edu%7Cd962bf8e486c46e6413b08dcd8b327c7%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C638623511169579928%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=W4gk0iSGfkcO4v%2B6aayAGwxMsLFmJLHNl%2BiIc2ByciI%3D&reserved=0 
>, recording data from your efforts and bringing any dead birds you find to Irvine 018. Click on the link to get started today!
  *   While we hope we don't find dead birds, any birds we recover are frozen then made into museum specimens by Ohio University students. These specimens contribute to teaching, research and learning at OHIO.
  *   You can find out more about Bird Building Collisions and how to prevent them at the American Bird Conservancy< https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fabcbirds.org%2Fglass-collisions%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cocees%40listserv.ohio.edu%7Cd962bf8e486c46e6413b08dcd8b327c7%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C638623511169736265%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=zlboj9l23Lm4vy%2F0gYwhd%2BJL9%2BaiL%2FyEl0I6O8yCt90%3D&reserved=0

> then find your way to Irvine 018 to pick up paper bags.
  *   The bags have information on how to record your data.
  *   If you find a dead bird, please drop it off in the bag that day so we can preserve the specimen. It is important to get the bird into the freezer as quickly as possible. We check the box twice a day!
  *   If you cannot make it to Irvine Hall but want to participate, please email us at collisions at ohio.edu 
<mailto: collisions at ohio.edu 
> to make arrangements with one of our lab members to get bags and return any dead birds to us.

Thanks!
Kelly
