SPANISH FRIDAY: Pajarito Kamikaze




Algo raro ocurrió cuando regresamos de California. Al día siguiente por la madrugada disperté a un ruido desconocido que se oía PLOP--PLOP--PLOP. Estaba yo tan cansada que no me levanté a investigar. Figuré que probablemente era la cola del perro que pegaba una de las puertas de abajo, y además después de varios minutos se desapareció el ruido.

El ruido PLOP--PLOP--PLOP continuó por varios dias, siempre a la misma hora, hasta que por fin me comenzó a volver loca. "Que diablos tiene ese perro!?" pensé. Cuando me levanté a regañarlo miren lo que descubrí.

¿Alguien me puede explicar por que sucede esto?



Something strange happened when we returned from California. The following morning I woke up to an unfamiliar noise that sounded like PLOP--PLOP--PLOP. Being so tired, I didn't get up to investigate it. I figured that it was probably the dog's tail banging on one of the doors downstairs, besides, after several minutes the sound disappeared.

The PLOP--PLOP--PLOP continued for several days, at the same hour, until it finally started to drive me nuts. I thought, "What the devil is wrong with that dog?" Look at what I discovered when I got up to scold him. 

Can somebody explain to me why this is happening?

  1. Awh, poor stupid bird :( Put a big sticker/window decal on the window. He must see his reflection and think it's another male bird and is defending his territory?

    1. Tracy, I discovered this afternoon that this is typical behavior for male cardinals! I had no idea birds did this. We've been in the same house 15 years and have never had it happen before. Funny thing is that this crazy bird is always accompanied by another cardinal that sits in the bare tree right in front of our house and just watches it.

    1. Doesn't it?! Pobrecito. I feel bad for him. Although you'd think he'd have it figured out by now. *lol*

  3. This poor bird is kinda dumb. You would think that the poor thing would stop banging itself in the window after the first couple of times. Maybe it is being territorial and sees the "other bird" in its reflection and is trying to fight it. lol

    Super annoying. Might be worth calling your local SPCA to get some more info on how to prevent it.. or just get a laugh out of it. lol

    poor thing.

  4. I'm surprised he did it for that long. I've seen it happen at some place I worked at but i have no idea that it could go on for that long. Hope birdies ok .
