    Thankyou enjoyed. With the migrations getting harder with the Skyscrapers, Windmills and less habitat to feed, Ships are a lifesaver. A Freind & I rescue songbirds that hit the glass skyscrapers in Newark NJ, TRT made a video named 'Window Strikes in the Business District' of us picking up injured Warblers. In Newark most of the birds that hit the glass skyscrapers perish on impact, or when fall to the cement pavement. The injured get a 2nd chance when we bring then to TRT. TRT vid minute 4:01 shows a paralyzed Flicker crying, that Flicker made full recovery.

    I saw your video. You are doing a very good job there. It's heartbreaking indeed just the thought of a small song bird flying for so many miles avoiding raptors etc only to suddenly collide on a man made structure that was selfishly designed. Unfortunately some birds face similar dangers on a ship as some still hit on windows or are distracted by the lights at night especially during storms. Birds were migrating for thousands of years before the shipping industry took over the oceans. Ships do help tired birds but attract also others that would have normally cross the sea right away without having to deal with the extra dangers of a ship.

    @@OdiFroilan Wow I did not consider that perhaps some birds attracted to ship they may have flown to their original destination. The more I know the more I want to know, thank you for sharing. I agree selfish designed as they know the birds are harmed, but do not care . Newark is big city ( not save for animals or people) and two of us cannot cover every building as the gulls eat the injured & perished in seconds -- yet every year more glass skyscrapers go up in Newark ( cheap and fashionable looking).

    Gracias. Es verdad que en algunas ocasiones, los pájaros están tan cansados que una vez que bajan en el barco, no se van a ir hasta que el barco se acerca a algún puerto que también puede estar en una dirección incorrecta de lo que deberían ir por su migración. En otros casos por ejemplo, pájaros carpinteros que normalmente no hacen migración han aparecido en sitios que no existe su especie viajando con barcos que transportan madera. Pero la mayoría de las ocasiones son pájaros que bajan por un día para descansar,comer y tomar agua y luego continúan su viajé a la dirección que sus antepasados hacían por miles de años.

    This happens in every migration period and in every ship that happens to be passing through the migration paths at these moments. The vast majority of the birds will pass without stopping by. But most exhausted or confused birds will definitely use the ships as a temporary shelter.
