Birds that stop in the Big Apple on their way south for the winter are dying by the dozen thanks to a ritzy Central Park condo with avian death traps for windows.
Birds that stop in the Big Apple on their way south for the winter are dying by the dozen thanks to a ritzy Central Park condo with avian death traps for windows, advocates say.
A black and white warbler who was rescued by the Wild Bird Fund after crashing into Circa Central Park.“I thought someone was shooting them down with a BB gun. I walked with my dog and there were eight of them lined up,” Will Brand, a maintenance worker who lives in the building next door, said of the recent carnage he witnessed.
“It’s definitely an egregious bird killing building. For how small it is and how new it is, it kills a disproportionate amount of birds from our perspective,” Catherine Quayle, social media director for the Wild Bird Fund, told The Post. Though her boss has window decals and tassels on the balcony, it wasn’t enough to stop the unwitting kamikazes.
“We asked them to look at more permanent treatments to the windows but I think it requires a lot of effort, like installation, and all of the residents would have to agree to it.”
