Is it bad luck for a bird to fly into a window and die
Birds do not understand glass. They either see a reflection, or they see through it. It's spring. Birds have returned to claim their breeding grounds. They will attack their own reflections in glass and mirrors, thinking that it's an intruder, particularly males who are establishing territories. Or, they see the reflection of the outdoors, or passage through the house, and fly right into the glass. This is called a window strike. There are two ways to stop window strikes and attacks. 1. Remove the optical illusion. Cover the window, open or close drapes, or use UV decals to remove or break up the reflection, or invisibility of the glass. If you can see a reflection - so can they.

Sun catchers, garden spinners, cds/pie tins hanging from fishing line, plastic owls or other decoy predators are all possible solutions.
Good question, the idea that U.V. light cannot pass through glass is a modern delusion perpetuated by the press. Studies in the States show more cancer cases on the left of the body due to U.V. passing through the door window. The U.V. is blocked from coming through the windscreen by the plastic layer in the middle. (If you have a laminated windscreen. Compulsory in the States but not everywhere)
The red cardinal may be seeing its reflection in the window and trying to defend its territory. To prevent this behavior, you can try covering the outside of the window with a transparent material such as plastic cling wrap or installing window decals to break up the reflection.
