Right now, our Lapeer, Michigan home looks more like some of the back roads Kentucky places we saw a couple weeks ago.
When the bird moved to the next large window we purchased a $14 plastic owl to sit in front of the window, which seems to have done the trick. No attacks in almost three days.
When the rains came early this week we discovered our brand new roof (December) has a serious leak over our bedroom. The roofer is coming out (soon, we hope) to fix the problem, but in the meantime I have a 20-foot by 30-foot blue tarp weighted down on the roof to keep more water from flowing into the room.
So with the old sheet over one window and a big blue tarp on the roof, we pretty much look like the old shanties we saw on our trip.
With a crazy male Robin going nuts attacking our windows after he sees his own reflection, we had to resort to pinning up an old sheet over the window to discourage the behavior.

We believe what happens in Kentucky, should stay in Kentucky. I've enclosed a few photos to let you see what we look like right now.
We had robins attacking our home one year. I blew up a picture of a blackbird in flight and taped them in our windows and that seemed to take care of it.
ReplyDeleteYour RV reports are interesting. Two yrs. ago we began with our trailer. Had a nice 5-6 wk. stay in Fla. and Georgia. Generally we found state parks to be wonderful. Last summer we really liked Bishop state park near Brighton.
