Picture Stockton...Using Art to Save the Birds 
A flock of birds has on 91视频's Galloway campus to warn migrating birds to steer clear of the windows.
To a soaring songbird, reflections of sky and forest on glass are indistinguishable from the hard reality. Building collisions are one of the top anthropogenic threats to birds, causing up to one billion bird deaths annually in the U.S. according to scientific estimates.
The K-Wing breezeway, located between Lake Fred and the Campus Center, is an especially dangerous spot because it is an expansive, double-sided window space adjacent to prime bird habitat in the Pinelands National Reserve.
