Today, just when I arrived home and proceeded to the kitchen to prepare my lunch, a bird (I don't know the name, just see the photo) suddenly perched on a bush near the kitchen window. At first, I didn't mind it. At this time of year, birds of various species, abound in Brookings South Dakota. [video after the jump]
Few minutes later, however, as I was comfortably seated, watching Wimbledon Grand Slam Tennis live on TV, I heard this short banging against something. I thought it was just the clothes dryer that my housemate left running the whole morning. It wasn't. Slowly, the noise was becoming irritating. It was then that I realized that the little yellow-green-chested bird was banging or attacking the glass window.
"Confused bird", was my first reaction. Maybe the bird thought something inside the house was appealing. Maybe the bird thought she could go through a glass window by simply banging its head or flapping its wings against it.
I shooed the bird away twice. Twice it flew past the road across the house just to come back a few minutes later, at the same spot of the bush, and attacked the same window. That's the time I decided to take a video. I tiptoed towards the kitchen side, placed my camera close to the glass window and, alas, the bird didn't even care. The bird merely looked at my camera and continued with its performance. So I had good shots at it's crazy show, in the end.
Watch the video.
Tell me what you think. What is this bird doing?
