Yale and New Haven Bird-Window Collisions

This project documents bird-window collisions in the city of New Haven, CT, the greater New Haven area, and on Yale University's campus (including on West Campus). Members of the Yale and New Haven communities, as well as visitors, are encouraged to document the bird window strikes that they encounter. The purpose of this project is to help quantify and gather data about bird mortality due to window collision in the city, to identify buildings that are killing birds frequently, and to use this data to propose and advocate for mitigation action to prevent future deaths.

Please take photos of the bird from multiple angles to help with bird identification and include the location/ date found. Thanks! less ↑
