Or open a mini fried chicken operation?
I have no clue where that is.
Oh, come on! All birds do is fly around and poop on newly washed cars.
(Insert Arizona Cardinals, Baltimore Ravens, Philadelphia Eagles, Atlanta Falcons Joke here)
500 birds a year. 200,000 square feet of glass. Okay, that’s one bird for every 400 square feet of glass per year. I have 13 windows in my house which total about 200 square feet of glass. I’ve had three birds fly into my windows in the two years I’ve lived there. So, I have 1.5 birds per 200 square feet of glass per year. My house has a higher kill rate than the stadium does per square foot of glass.
All solid upright objects are bird killing machines. Even trees.
Larger objects kill more birds than smaller ones.
Just a thought. What if a crazy person flys a large drone into the glass wall to protest the constant deaths of the birds?! And what if the drone strike happens during half-time at the Super Bowl?! It is a glass house. It invites the deaths of birds. What if a drone tossed a rock.
2 observations,
Does this same principle apply to skyscrapers? Most tall buildings have lots of glass. Some have an “off color”, a light green I have seen, maybe that would help.
Those who counted the birds must have done this in the summertime, most Hummingbirds, all in fact, fly south for the winter.
So, the inspection stated by Audabon was not done recently.
In Alabama anyone with a hunting license can shoot a dozen dove a day for at least 30 days every winter. (OK we just call it winter, it was 80 today.) I don’t think the stadium is making much of an impact.
