Intense short-wavelength light triggers avoidance response by Red-tailed Hawks: A new tool for raptor diversion?

http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.1650/CONDOR-16-230.1?utm_campaign=June+2017+Content+Alert&utm_medium=email&utm_source=June+2017+Content+Alert&journalCode=cond

Quote: "Our results suggest that, with further testing and refinement, high-brightness, monochromatic LEDs that specifically target avian photoreceptors could provide a useful tool to divert raptors from hazardous situations."
