Spring 2012 Bird Migration Has Begun!
As of March 12, 2012, the Fatal Light Awareness Program (FLAP) volunteers
encountered this season's first migratory bird casualty in the GTA: an
American Woodcock. This brings FLAP's total recorded collisions to over
54,000 birds from 164 species.
To prevent this tragic loss of life, FLAP and the City of Toronto urge you
to practice the following:
* Reflectivity control on your windows
* Responsible light reduction
* Extinguish all exterior decorative, promotional, flood, and spot
lighting
* Educate your staff & tenants on ways they can help prevent bird
death at work and at home http://www.flap.org/bird-safe-buildings.php .
