Q. A bird keeps attacking my window! What8217;s going on?
A. Male birds commonly attack windows during mating season. The bird wrongly assumes that his own reflection is a rival in his territory! You can prevent this by hanging hawk-shaped silhouettes, cloth, or squares of aluminum foil outside the window to break up the reflection.
Q. What should I do if I find a nest of baby rabbits?A. If the nest is intact, leave it alone! Mother rabbits only visit their young 2 or 3 times a day to avoid attracting predators. If the nest has been disturbed, or if you have reason to believe that the babies are orphaned, you can put an X8217; of yarn or sticks over the nest to assess if the mother has returned to nurse them. If the X8217; remains undisturbed for 24 hours, call your wildlife agency to locate a rehabilitator. Keep all cats out of the area because they will surely find and kill the helpless young rabbits. Don8217;t touch the babies unless orphaned because mother rabbits are very sensitive in foreign smells and may abandon their young ones.
