Reduce Bird Strikes - Make Glass More Visible
Incorporates UV emitting elements that only birds can see!
Birds Do Not See Window Glass
Have you heard the "thud" as a bird crashes into your window? Birds do not perceive window glass as a barrier when the reflections distort their view. A bird may mistake the reflection of a tree for the actual tree. A bird hitting the window will often lead to injury or death for the bird.
Bird Deaths from Window Impact
Sadly, the collision of birds with windows is the largest human-caused factor in bird mortality. Figures from the United States estimate deaths between 100-million and 1-billion birds per year. (American Bird Conservancy)
Make Your Home Safe for Birds
Make your house a bird-friendly building. Bird's Eye View® helps reduce wild bird window strikes by making the glass more visible to our feathered friends.
How does Bird's Eye View® Work?
For many species of birds, their vision extends into the ultraviolet range that humans can not see (so-called UVS ultraviolet vision). Bird's Eye View® is a decorative decal that emits light where bird vision is sensitive but human vision is not. It does this without any batteries or external power. Bird's Eye View® is powered by short-wavelength ultraviolet light in sunlight. Then by a process called Photoluminescence, the UV light is converted into light which is visible to birds but not to humans.
To birds, the Bird's Eye View® decal looks like a bright blue glow that spreads out in all directions across the window surface disrupting the reflection of the habitat. To people, it appears as a faint opaque geometric design.
Bird's Eye View® decal is unique and protected by International patents. You'll find no other product like it. It's an attractive and practical way to look after our feathered friends.
(Some people refer to the Bird's Eye View® decals as "window films", "window stickers" or "window clings". )
Six-Pack 10cm x 10cm

Installation
- Place the Bird's Eye View® decal on areas of glass that have the biggest problem.
- Typically, install two 15cm or four 10cm decals per window near the centre of the pane.
- Place on the inside of the window.
- Clean the window before applying.
NOTE: Bird's Eye View® decal adheres to glass by static attraction. No adhesives are used. The decal is easily removed.
Do you have an injured bird?
The best way to help is to loosely wrap the bird in a towel and gently place it in a secure and well-ventilated box. Place the box away from noise, pets, children or other disturbances. Do not attempt to feed the bird.
Contact your local wildlife rescue organisation who will be able to provide further advice.
