Re: Birds and glass (again)

The Peterborough bird was a Pallas's warbler - don't know how that stands in the rarity charts. The same windows have claimed ten Goldcrests (in one month), three Woodcock, a Kingfisher and a Firecrest. Prtesumably the only reason that these birds have been recorded is that the building is the office of someone with sufficient expertise to identify the corpses. I wonder how many other birds come to grief against glass sided offices without being noticed?
