[Tweeters] Bird Window Strikes!

[Steve Hampton]

Thanks Derek.  Window strikes were a major issue at my old house.
Fortunately, I found a solution thanks to good advice from a birder; I
needed something moving in front of the window. As indicated on your
webpage (https://www.birdvancouver.com/window-strikes-2021-main/), simple
falcon decals were not working. Birds wouldn't see them and would hit
within inches of them.

Here's what worked for me:
