Glass is a favored building material for modern architecture, yet it is also very dangerous for wild birds. Because they often cannot distinguish between glass and open air, millions of birds are harmed every year when they try to fly through glass window

The reading and lecture are both about the birds prevention from getting injured through the glass of the window, whereas the author gives the three solutions in order to prevent the injuries of the bird by the glass window. The lecture casts doubts on those three solutions given by the author by claiming that all those methods are useless.

At first, the author of the reading states the ideas about the replacement of the regular glass with the one-way glass, doing this will let the people see outside in one way and birds cannot see through it, as a result bird will not get trapped in the buildings. However, the lecture posits that this idea is not a proper solution as the one-way glass reflects the light, and birds will not understand it that they are just reflections. He also says that due to the false representation of reflection, birds will resemblance the reflection as the sky or the tree and will fly over the window.

Admittedly, the author coins a new way to help birds from getting harm by formulating the colorful design, which will have a stripe on it and birds will see just stripes not the window. In contrary, the speaker refutes author's ideas as he thought it is also not a good idea as he thinks that the stripes of the window might refer fallacy to birds. He thoughts that the birds could falsely see the stripes as the small holes and might get into it. Moreover, the lecturer adds new idea that unpainted part should be small but he also disagree with this idea as he thinks making a small hole will make the room dark of the buildings.

Finally, the author claims that magnetic field might help bird to separate their direction as placing electromagnetic that emit magnetic signals to help bird to determine their directions. On the other hand, the lecture states that this solution will also not work as the birds use their ability of deciding their's directions through the earth's magnetic fields for very long distances. He further explains that the bird will not use this ability to decide the short distance between the two cities. Therefore, the lecture says that the bird could determine its direction through its ear and brightness of light.

To sum up, the speaker disagrees with the solutions given by the author of the reading as he found those solution not convincing to his ideas.
