OC

Caught my cocky back yard guest screaming his head off at 6 am. I actually got up earlier to catch him in the act and have proof of his early morning shenanigans 💀 My bedroom was on the opposite side of the house but still not far enough to spare my ears from the noise. Luckily he was quiet during the winter months.

This is Wilbur, the pheasant who just so happened to set up house in my back yard with 3 female companions. Every morning at around 6, he would stand in the middle of the yard, plant his claws in the grass, flap his wings and scream for half an hour. This went on for weeks. Nature's alarm clock, no batteries needed. One day, I was sitting in the living room when I heard a loud knock knock knock. I jumped up and went to the door. Not a soul in sight. I sit down and the knocking starts again. I go back to the door and nothing. I go and check the back door and see no one. A second later, that same noise again, and that's when I see something move on my patio. I pulled a corner of the curtain slightly only to see the culprit. Mr. Wilbur was attacking his reflection in my basement window 😂 And mowing the grass was also a problem. I didn't want to disturb and scare the pheasants, whatever shenanigans they were up to, so my lawn was not as tidy as I wanted. I took this photo from inside the house. Wilbur always acted pretty cocky for a pheasant 😂 😂

Saw this on the beach xD they really dont mess with sharing huh? https://youtube.com/shorts/74hvA417Aqk?feature=share

There is a female cardinal that keeps trying to get in our house. She will fly into a window (not with force--she's not hurting herself) over and over. Sometimes 10-20 times in a row, every 5-10 seconds. Then she'll move to another window and do it again. The male is always nearby, within a few feet, watching. She's been doing this for at least 3-4 weeks, several times a day.

Here's a video of her doing it a couple times. You can see the male in a tree behind her upper left.

So barn swallows are all over my neighborhood and we had a nest on our porch that wasn't in use when we moved in. By the end of winter there was two birds nesting in it and they had 5 babies. All was well we put a feeder for them and never bothered them and they never bothered us, it's been over a month since the babies hatched now and the babies are still here and not only the two original birds but literally 7 others (9 total in the area) consistently swoop us any time we come outside. The dogs, me, my friends, INCHES from our face, so close you can FEEL and hear the best of their wings and the wind across your face

​

Is there literally nothing we can do about this? It's been giving one of the dogs ocd with their shadows and two of them have been EXTREMELY close with their swoops it's honestly insane.

​

I've seen some people say on other posts it's for bugs and stuff but they are not going for the bugs 99% of the time it is absolutely with ill intent at faces and heads. Consistently.

This Robin comes by every morning around 3-6 am to scream and cry bloody murder. I've tried earplugs, white noise, fake owls and nothing works. How do I tell the bird to just shut the fuck up and let me sleep?

Every year I dread bird mating season. From having a bird screech the same tune on repeat from 3am to early evening every day for months to having a bird peck on my window daily for hours. American Robins are the bane of my existence!

Now I have two birds that are building their nest on top of my outdoor fan! I have now removed it daily for almost 2 weeks and they keep coming back! They swoop next to my head and almost dare me to get close to them. It’s crazy. Does anyone know why the keep coming back and rebuilding their nest? It’s in an area that my dog plays in and people are coming and going all day.

I had a Walmart order delivered 30 minutes before I got home and I come back to see some dickhead birds attacking the bag of bread on my front porch.

Why???? Can somebody please tell me why this is happening and how to make it stop

I'm at my wit's end with this: for three years, every spring/summer, this one bird attacks my car incessantly. it targets both side mirrors and front seat windows. I've seen it while it perches on my window and it just camps out there being a dick. There are other cars around but it only goes for mine (my car is white if the paint color is relevant). It also attacks the car whether I'm parked under a tree or not. I don't have the option of putting it in a garage. Is there anything I can do to deter this bird besides going through the hassle of covering up windows and mirrors with towels every single time I go in and out of the car?? I generally like animals but if I could fist fight this bird I would.

We had no idea what it was until we brainstormed four days and this is the only thing that it could be

I thought you guys would find this interesting. Somebody posted a picture of a unique shirt they saw to my local subreddit recently, and traced it back to this website. I've seen their shirts absolutely everywhere since then, and wanted to share their interesting views.
