Many bird die-offs are caused by massive trauma to birds' heads, wings, and bodies from powerful collisions. This can occur when flocks are startled and panicked and their natural agility is compromised. This may lead to collisions with other birds in the air or with obstacles such as buildings, trees, wind turbines, electrical wires or radio towers.
Decrease the Risk
Avoid startling roosting flocks of birds with poorly timed fireworks or other loud noises. During migration seasons, encourage buildings to turn off lights that may attract bird flocks to window collisions.

Bad Black Cat
Veterinary scientists have recommended cat owners keep their pets indoors to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus among animals.
But the British Veterinary Association stressed "owners should not worry" about risk of infection from pets. "There isn't a single case of a pet dog or cat infecting a human with Covid-19," Dr Angel Almendros, from City University in Hong Kong, told BBC News.
Research has shown cats may be able to catch the virus from other cats.
