Bird Strikes on Johns Hopkins' Campuses

This survey is intended to gather feedback from the JHU community on bird collisions (also known as bird strikes), which happens when birds collide with buildings. Building collisions are a significant source of death for birds annually, with an estimated 600 million fatalities each year in the U.S. alone.

In most cases, this happens because birds do not recognize glass as a surface and end up flying directly into windows, which may cause severe injury or death. The JHU Office of Sustainability is working to monitor bird strikes on Johns Hopkins’ campuses and identify problem areas and locations where these incidents may occur.

Please fill out the following survey to provide feedback and learn more about ways you can contribute to citizen science tracking as part of the JHU Bird Strike Observations project.
