<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If you don't already receive quarterly
e-newsletters from FLAP (protecting birds from collisions with buildings +
windows), this recent issue has some really interesting information about birds
and bird counts in Southern Ontario, and how a library in Scarborough
retrofitted their windows to be bird-friendly...they found out the dot pattern
needs to be on the<EM> outside</EM> of the glass. We need to get
some kind of a bylaw(?) going here as they do in Toronto- all new buildings
must meet a code for bird-friendly windows I believe, as well as rules for
leaving less lights on in office buildings overnight.. <A

I see an office building from our house that leaves so many lights on at night
that its ridiculous. There can't be cleaners in there all night!
