This little guy doesn't know what hit him. He was just using all his tiny energy to fly from Canada to Central America when he flew into the glass of a Chicago building.
Thank you to the concerned passerby who took the time to call CBCM about this bird.
Millions of windows in Chicago are killing birds during the spring and fall migration seasons. The city can stop building new structures that harm birds by mandating the use of bird-friendly building materials and designs.
Help us pass an ordinance requiring bird protection!

Make sure your alderperson and other city officials support required bird- friendly building practices.
