Feather Angel

Despite our precautions, several of which can be seen in this image*, panicked birds still crash into our living room window.


I don't know what happened to this one. Most impacts result in a stunned yet alive bird. Although I've no way to know the long term prognosis.

While I hope this one was ok, but that is some imprint. Sadly, I suspect the worse.

* We have multiple strands of paracord, one of which can be seen at the lower left, which sway in the slightest breeze. We also have three 2x4's, like the one on the right, which also help the birds to focus in front of the window. Not seen are the reflective decals. All meant to break up the reflected image of the yard. Also note the bird feeders are ten plus feet away from the window, to give the birds time to correct course.
