David Sibley - yes, THAT David Sibley - recently discovered that you can 
almost totally eliminate window strikes by cross-hatching the window 
with a yellow hiliter. Virtually invisible to humans, the marks radiate 
strongly in ultraviolet and the birds no longer react to the window as 
open space.
