...and the birds go BOINK !!!

Does anyone else have DOPEY birds by their house that BOINK into their windows ??????? Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

WE have one room in the house with huge windows, its surrounded by all windows on 3 sides, so I guess it appears to be an "outdoor" type feeling... well these dopey birds CONSTANTLY fly right INTO the windows! Chat Icon

Quite often we here THUMPPP (they survive thank goodness) But now my 3yr old son starts to laugh and think theyre putting on a show or something Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Nope but most of our windows have blinds and we don't hvae any big picture windows. How about giving those birds a break & hanging a sun catcher on it?

you mean to stop the glare, im confused ? Chat Icon they even just did it now and its totally cloudy out Chat Icon

two of the windows have blinds, two dont, since they are rear facing and there are no neighbors in back, we wanted to keep it "open"....

Yes I meant the glare. Maybe your birds have just taken one too many hits & are now officially stupid that they don't notice the blinds?Chat Icon

Re: ...and the birds go BOINK !!!

Re: ...and the birds go BOINK !!!

Blinds are not going to help the birds...at certain times of the day, the windows act as mirrors, so whatever you have inside will not help the appearance outside...there are things you can hang outside on the window, that are not gaudy or anything...just something that the bird can see and hopefully stop the optical ollusion.

Good luck Chat Icon
