birds and windows - January 7th, 2007 at 11:12 AM
please someone tell me how to keep the wild birds from slamming in to the many windows of the house?????????? i have hung suncatchers and other stuff in them and some even have curtains. i have made 5 "rescues", a wren, woodpecker, titmouse, another wren, and something else. as soon as i hear one hit, i scoop it up and hold it until it comes out of shock and then it flies away!
the problem is i'm not always around, so occasionally i find dead ones on the ground and the porch roof.
one day last summer a hawk, yes, HAWK, hit. it sat up in a nearby tree and collected itself, then flew off. Thank goodness i did'nt have to retrieve it somehow, that would have made a great story for the ER!
sooo, any suggestions?
