Dear All The Birds Currently Flying Around In My Backyard

March 13, 2009 By Jenny Ryan 1 Comment

Hello, and welcome.

I realize that we are all pretty excited about the return of spring, the chance to frolic in the birdbath, and the opportunity to make new little baby birds.

But I would really appreciate it if you could reign in your enthusiasm enough to STOP ACCIDENTALLY COMMITTING SUICIDE BY YOUR KAMIKAZE-LIKE SMASHING INTO THE MIDDLE OF MY OFFICE WINDOW, AND THEN FALLING INTO A LIFELESS, PATHETIC HEAP ONTO THE SIDEWALK.

This is really starting to bum me out, and it’s not like I don’t already have a lot on my place or anything, what with the whole living with a chronic pain disorder thing.

I really don’t like having to have a dedicated “Dead Bird Removal Tool” living in our garage.

So if you could maybe tone things down just a bit, that would be great.

Thanks so much,

Jenny

    As a wild bird rehabilitator, I get calls about birds injured this way all the time. Not sure where in the world you are, but you might try finding a local wildlife rehab center, so that if you find any still alive you can take them for care. My rescue group, in Peoria AZ, is Fallen Feathers; we have temporary emergency bird care on our website.

    As far as preventing bird impacts, you might try talking with the property management about putting decals on the windows. They really work! Some sources:

    Good luck!
