Chris, I read a commentary by Sibley about marking windows with yellow 
highlighters to prevent bird collisions.  I marked all my windows near the 
bird feeders last winter.  I believe it made a big difference in preventing 
collisions.  The highlighter is not very visible to humans but the birds see 
it.
