Re: It happened AGAIN!

I'm glad the goldfinch made it through - it's always a happy moment.

We were commenting the other day that despite having window feeders, we've had no birds hitting the windows. Until yesterday that is, when it happened twice.
What had happened was I'd opened the windows a crack which must have threw off their instinctive calculation of distance and landing spot. My husband commented that they can't have been going that fast as it was the feeders they were going for and the windows were open no ore than half an inch .. just a small bump as they flew off again. I did check the garden, but no sign at all.
