There is a Cardinal or Mockingbird flying at the window outside of my house or attacking the mirror on my car. What is it doing?
Male songbirds see their reflection in windows or mirrors and they think it is another bird of their same species. They are defending their territory, unfortunately against themselves. To stop this, cover the mirror or remove the reflectivity of the window by pulling down a shade or closing the curtains. You can also tape the silhouette of a falcon in the window to scare the bird away.
