Hello, 

 

I know that unfortunately we find all too frequently birds that have
collided with a manmade structure.  Susan Bradfield at the Smithsonian
Migratory Bird Center's Bridging the Americas program is looking for bird
skins.  She is interested in using birds found for outreach presentations
that they do at participating schools and study skins would help them in
conveying information about adaptations and identification.   

 

If you find any bird specimens, please email Susan at   

 

Her other contact info is:
