Question
I have read the articles about robin's attacking houses and that we need to eliminate the reflection. This bird is attacking every window of the house until just after the sun goes down and even attacks windows that have no reflection. Wheat do we do then?
This is the most comprehensive site I've found that explains how to prevent that from happening. But realistically, it's not possible to prevent it completely. Animals are just going to do certain things, no matter how much trouble we go to.

Hope this helps,

Expertise
I can answer questions about bird identification (by sight or sound), behavior, distribution, population, conservation, mating, nesting, fledging and feeding. I do have some practical knowledge about foreign species, but identification skills are limited in that arena. Bear in mind that as much as I know, it's possible that at least some of you will ask a question that I am unable to answer. At which point I would direct you to wherever or whomever I thought could provide you with that information.
Experience
I have 15 years birding experience in Southern California.
Organizations
Audubon Society
Education/Credentials
My education is in art and photography -but I have a substantial portfolio of nature related work.
