On October 5-11, join Global Bird Rescue (GBR) and help make the world safer for birds. GBR is an annual event hosted by FLAP Canada that raises awareness about the bird-building collision issue and inspires action to help mitigate this leading cause of bird death worldwide. To see how common this issue has become, follow our globalbirdrescue_bot on Twitter! Every time someone tweets about a bird hitting a window, the birdcrash_bot retweets them with universal illustrated instructions on how to help the bird.

GBR uses the Global Bird Collision Mapper (GBCM) to document bird-building collisions across the globe. If you find a dead or injured bird from a window collision, chart it using our mapper tool.
