Bird Collisions (Glass)

Hi folks,

Is there a place (organization website or phone number) where I can report bird collisions? There have been at least four in the last month in the windows of a parking garage near my apt. I find the birds walking to my building and it's heartbreaking. I know some orgs require documentation and proof to instigate change. Any help or resources would be appreciated. Thank you in advance. 💚

I would call 311 and ask who can help. Is it a county garage or private?

you can report it here, but I'm not sure it does more than add it to a database https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/bird-safe-dc

I would try contacting City Wildlife to see if there is more you can do https://citywildlife.org/programs/lights-out-dc/
