Warning: that 'bird safe' window decal might be lying to you

I bought a pack of those UV reflective hawk silhouette decals from a brand called Avian Flight last Saturday, figuring $15 was cheap insurance for the finches slamming into my back window. Turns out a study I stumbled on from the American Bird Conservancy says most of those decals only cut collisions by like 10% unless they're spaced super close together. Has anyone else found a decal pattern that actually works, or am I just taping up post-it notes instead?

Sounds like I can save fifteen bucks and just cram my window with post-its instead.

Ha, I actually used to think the same way! But then I tried it on a hot day and realized the post-its just let all the heat pour right through.
