My sister forwarded this link. She is part of a photography show in a
gallery in north central Minnesota which had an opening for the new show
this past weekend. Link is to one of the featured photos. The website
takes you to some of what she used opening night her powerpoint describing
birds meeting untimely deaths. Her show may have contained other sad photos
of our beauties meeting their death against windows. Title of her show is
IMPACT. Can't you just feel that.

Perhaps some of you know her or know of the program. I thought the photo
might be useful when sending e-mails or doing a meeting with people if
birders should get so lucky. The warbler makes an emotional impact, perhaps
especially for those folks who only visualize pesky Canada Geese hitting
airplanes or Rock Pigeons swirling around stadiums. She says of her
program,

Impact : Miranda Brandon
While volunteering for the Audubon's BirdSafe program I collected many birds
that met untimely deaths due to collisions with built structures. View on

Oh, my sister is not the photographer above, her photos are of bogs, but she
joined us birders in the writing campaign re Viking stadium and knows some
of us might find this helpful, although sad. I do not know the name of the
gallery but could obtain it if there is interest. Good birding to all, Judy
