What's going on? Last year we had a bird hit the windows, maybe once a
month, or every two months. This year it's been more like 6-8 a day!!
And even the cautious ones hang on the junction ledge and press their
heads against the glass, or tentatively flutter around over the
surface of the glass, as if they could find some opening to get
through. Some of these birds are so aggressive they go to several
windows and sliding doors.
Some birds hit so hard they mortally wound themselves. Most usually
are stunned and just make a horrible flutter/thump sound that can be
heard throughout the whole house, a bit jarring. But, like I said once
a month, or every two months is one thing. But this is getting
unnerving, even in the time I took to type this in there were two
'hits'
Anybody have any similar experiences this year, or ideas as to why the
increase?
PS: many of these birds are 'seed' eaters, so don't tell me we sound
like bugs in here! ok, a giant nut, i walked into that one.
Hang a capitalist scum bucket contractor from a tree. That will scare em away.
