GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The
University of Florida is
experimenting with a unique window design that mimics tree branches to help
prevent bird collisions.
School officials say birds
hitting windows has been a campus-wide problem for years. Mark Hostetler is a
professor of wildlife ecology and conservation in UF's Institute of Food and
Agricultural Sciences. He says they asked students to monitor buildings two
years ago to see where the bulk of the collisions were occurring.
