We've had 3 in the last week, latest one was a pigeon that fairly twatted itself off the lounge window, I nearly **** meself! Anyone else had this, seems like their navigation systems or eyesight is a bit wonky.

Happend to me at work. Pigeon flew into the window, fell to the floor then a seagull ate it. Very grim way to shuffle of this earth imo.

No I think they are wanting a shag and they can see their reflection in the window I’ve got a photo of an owl that hit ours and it’s whole body print was left on the window our lass also picked a blackbird up that was knocked out the other day.
Thought you were describing our attacking play

Their eyes actually don’t know the windows are there. I used to have budgies and had to put up net curtains as they thought they could get out and kept hitting the windows!! We had a sparrow a few months ago. Full pelt into out kitchen window. Went outside and it’s lying shaking and it’s head point8g the wrong way! Wife decided to put a hanky over it as a blanket in a little box and put it to the side of the house till it died!! I **** you not

True,they don't realise the glass is there. When we built the new Acute Mental Illness Unit in Plymouth we had a glass corridor between two wings of the building and the birds kept flying into it. We had to put stickers of silhouettes of hawks at intervals on the glass.
I was going to say that. Probably got a couple of love birds in the dining room.
Is the movie any good? I've never watched but I know it is highly thought of.
If they can see straight through to the other side they will try and fly through the gap - especially young ones.
-Maybe you need net curtains or one of those bird of prey mobiles.
Aye we're surrounded by wood pigeons, we must be on the flight path, I'm guessing these kamikaze ones are younguns, I hope they learn after a few crashes.
Dated now, but would have had people on edge back in the day.
Aye, that's what I was afraid of. I suppose different things scare People at different points in time, depends on what's going on in real life is suppose
Haven't seen it for years, was quite scary watching it as a kid.

None mate...they like to shag their own....as people of different cultures from all over the world used to like to do before the BBC told us we didn't.
