Early spring is when migrating birds begin to return north, so it's a good time to make sure your home is as bird-safe as possible. Take a look at your windows and see if you can see a mirror reflection. Birds can't differentiate between a reflection and real life, so look into visual markers, film and screens that keep them from crashing into the glass. And if you have birdbaths and feeders, give them a good sanitizing clean. Just hot water, dish soap and a good scrub can be enough to make them as good as new.
