WhatYouTaughtMe said:I once puked into a gravity bong that my 15 year old self foolishly made out of a 3 liter soda bottle.
For the 3rd time in 6 months, a bird slammed into my sliding glass door while I was sitting in my chair right next to it. This only seems to happen when I am beyond high and alone. Good jumpstart for the heart, but mildly unsettling that birds keep slamming into it at full speed.Make windows visible to birds
Change things outside
- Window screen or a light net: Attach this at least 2-3” from the window. When the screen or net is taut, birds will bounce off (imagine a trampoline) without getting caught.
- Tape strips: Attach strips of chart tape on outside of window—either 1/4” vertical white strips (spaced 4” apart) or 1/8” horizontal black strips (spaced an inch apart).
- External shutters: Close them whenever windows aren't in use.
- External sun shades or awnings: They will eliminate or minimize reflection and transparency.
- Soap or paint patterns: Paint patterns on the outsides of windows with soap or tempera paint (which can be wiped off with a sponge but won't be washed away by rain). You can find stencils and tempera paint at art and craft supply stores.
- Decals and wind chimes: Place them closely together so that the spaces between them are no more than a 4” wide by 2” high. You can find decals at art and craft supply stores.
- Move feeders and baths: Place bird feeders and baths either within 3 feet (too close for a collision to be fatal) of windows or more than 30 feet away (birds will be more likely to recognize that windows are a part of the house).
- Bug screens year-round: If you have modern dual-pane windows, you can leave screens up all year to provide cushioning if a bird hits the window.
- Whitewash: If your shed or basement has windows, consider whitewashing them.

When we lived in Laurel Canyon, our kitchen window was constantly bashed by sparrows (everyone else thought it was a specific one since they didn't appear injured - more like startled, but I knew it was a various local crew of them drawn by the light at certain times of the day...sounds like a weird avian version of The Warriors, I know). It broke my heart but hell, nature will do its thing despite the cautions we take on their behalf.
The suggestions up there are good ones, B. We had bright decals but they didn't seem to do much.

Closest for me was Thai stick in Jr. High - didn't make me actually puke but just one hit took me to where my face turned completely white and I had to sit down in humiliation at the bus stop while my friends tended to me.

I wish I had some extra money. I'd really like to buy stocks in this new industry. I think buying into production will make some people rich.

I haven't been in a Second Cup in years, but when I last did, back when I lived in Ontario for a time, I wasn't impressed. Maybe they'll do better at this.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0 -

The packaging as well would be a good investment. IMO#FHP0
