Mere minutes after a male cardinal careened off the the window directly in front of me, this little guy hurled himself into one of the smaller windows in my living room. This being just three days after the Rose-breasted Grosbeak hit the window. I feel like such a bastard. The Blue Warbler — which I’d never seen or heard of before — was fine after about half an hour. Lady Bird tried to check him out and he took off, apparently OK.
Like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak, the Black-throated Blue Warbler is only found in the bulk of Virginia during migration, preferring the western Appalachians and the Northeast United States in the summer and the Carribean in the winter.
Dude, he looks pissed.
I think he might be a little evil.
I thought I looked like was about to say, “Uuuh… da… DAMN that hurt!”
I thought *it* looked…
I’m getting jealous. I’ve only seen the garden variety type of birds at my feeders and no hummingbirds.
That bird, he is all, “Bring it, biotch!”
I’m also jealous. All I get is crows and pigeons.
I had seen a fair amount of both female and male Cardinals this spring.
I didn’t put seed out this year, everything went so fast it seemed, that I missed when I usually put it out.
Didn’t you say a couple of months ago you were going to put up some UV Bird Scarers or something on your windows?
(BTW — I hope your anti-spam test accepts only “Democratic Party” — not “Democrat Party.”)
Yup, but I got lazy, figuring the birds weren’t really here yet, so whatever. And then came The Carnage. We got those stickers yesterday, and they’re going up today.
That’s the whole idea. :)
