hairyface 211 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) got asked last night to shoot a crow thats been causing abit of grief. every morning this week at 6am its crashing into the bedroom and living room windows, like really bouncing of the panes and swarking like hell, its also proceeded to pull off most of the silicone from around the windows, they say theyve never seen anything like it before its like its posessed and really wanting to smash the glass, it also been twice at 8pm, any ideas why its doing this or has anyone of yous seen the like before, cheers HF Edited June 15, 2012 by hairyface Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baw 4,360 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Does it have a nest close? At 6am the sun might be right to deflect it's reflection and it might be trying to attack a rival. Just a thought. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 They all go kinda skitzo this time of year. Possibly thinks its another crow invading it's nesting Area. I'm pretty sure they can't recognise thier own reflection. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ratreeper 441 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 We had a rook at school that started tapping on the classroom windows, not mentally like you describe though which sounds odd. However there is a bullfinch that attacks my car when I park in a certain spot, but only when it is sunny so I would say the reflection idea is the best one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gonetoearth 5,144 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 The whole of the corvid family are highly intelligent. I've seen magpies doing the same thing they can see there own reflection like a dog when it first sees it reflection , , some just keep reacting to the reflection , is there a mirror further back in the room Quote Link to post Share on other sites
