We are thrilled by the feedback from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria:

"The collaboration with BirdShades went smoothly. The Institute of Science and Technology in Austria is beautifully situated in the Viennese Woods, and you can discover many different plants and animals on a walk in the campus park and the surrounding forest. We are pleased to contribute to bird protection with the films on glazed buildings."
