This talk will explore the causes of bird window collisions and present a systems thinking approach that integrates bird safe window solutions with native plant landscaping. Attendees will learn about various products and strategies that have been proven to reduce bird strikes by up to 95 percent, along with practical, science based methods to promote healthier, more resilient ecosystems in their communities.

The second in a series of birding tours on the Swaner Preserve in 2025! Legendary Utah birder, Kenny Frisch, will guide us on an early morning excursion to view and identify resident and migratory feathered friends on the Preserve. We will provide binoculars for each attendee, or bring your own if you have a pair you prefer. Birders will meet at the EcoCenter and then carpool to the Swaner boundary to access the wetland ponds. Please be sure to wear hiking shoes or boots that can get wet, and be prepared for uneven soggy ground. Muck boots are available to
