BIRDS AND WILDLIFE INFORMATION

We get asked questions frequently about the safety of birds and wildlife with respect to our sculptures. No bird or creature has ever been harmed from one of our artworks. Our work goes through a careful review in order to receive legal permits before construction begins. We consulted a bio-engineering firm that explained how the physical qualities of the artwork do not meet the criteria that would endanger birds. Our nets are made of thicker rope with wider net openings than those used to entrap flying birds or other creatures. Our structures are not unlike naturally occurring vines and thickets often found in local forests, and birds are well adapted to avoid these.

Just google "Janet Echelman Birds". First page that pops up.

you're looking anxiously through will kill more birds.

Not the dozens of other places these sculptures have been successfully exhibited.

Yeah. I'm sure they never even considered the wind issue before.

As for the birds comment, please check the earlier thread (and, also, the link here).

Anyone hear about "wind"?

Yes, in fact, people have heard about "wind." In particular, the engineers involved in planning, designing, and installing this piece have probably heard a lot about "wind," wouldn't ya think?
