Birds hitting window. Solution?

@GinerNut They can really hit it with a bang can't they?

@JudyEv this is a hunting area. Thought I'd been shot

No, we had another wee bump while I was actually sitting at the window. Nearly jumped out of my skin with the bang lol. sorted it now though, I have left the curtain partially drawn until the window gets dirty again lol

The theory Jane Z is that they recognize the 3d of the shells instead of thinking it is simply a 'hole' they can fly through. That is my understanding anyway. All my fault. I'm on a housesit up a mountain and I wanted clearer views of the garden and the birds as they feed. So I washed and polished the glass and the way the light hits this window it looks like it's a hole right through the room to another window. That's my take on it Jane. I could be being completely bird brined about it but that I my theory. What does everyone else think? Thanks for the question Jane Z Oh and the shells? just because I had them, it could be anything.

@GinerNut Thank you for the explanation:) I hope it works!

@janezzz me too

oh, it is just a bunch of snail shells I drilled holes into and strung up in the hope the birds will recognise the glass. hoping to let them know they cannot fly through the space they see.
