A bird that hit this window and left an imprint. Look carefully at just the window, see the outline of the bird? This was taken in Ireland.

We have resorted to a large silhouette of a BoP on our kitchen window as we were getting more than the usual number of strikes, esp in summer when the youngsters are about. We think the birds see our back kitchen window and the one at the side as "clear", thinking they can go straight through. Perhaps it is pure happenstance, but ever since the silhouette went up, we have had no hits.

This is how that poor falcon at the U of R died a few years back -- with a similar imprint!  Ah, windows :(
