Full Spectrum Lighting and birds

http://www.thebirdbrain.com/html/lighting.cfm

Here's a great article that really explains the why's of full spectrum lighting and why we usually need to provide it artificially. Unfortunately, those of us with new replacement windows, aluminum screens, etc. may have actually reduced the benefits that birds get through the windows in even the sunniest homes.

Check out this article.
