Abstract

An anti-bird assembly for the prevention of landing of birds on the ledge of a building comprising a plurality of spaced apart brackets. Each bracket comprises a base flange for attachment of the assembly to a building. A frame portion is connected to the base flange, and an arrangement of arms are connected to the frame portion, each of the arms having a distal end with a wire attachment node thereon. A wire is arranged between corresponding wire attachment nodes of corresponding arms on adjacent spaced apart brackets to effect prevention of birds landing between spaced apart brackets on the building.
