Tena Barke on May 13, 2015Can you plant a tree/bush in front of it? It would appear that the bird is seeing the reflection of the sky.Helpful Reply

Ann on Aug 11, 2015I had this problem. The bird sees itself in the window but thinks it is an enemy bird, so it dives into the window to attack the bird. The extension service told me to hang a pair of blinds in the window. It does not allow as much light, but keep them opened and you have no more bird diving. It does the trick. I've had no more bird diving since that time , 3 years ago.Helpful Reply
