I just walked into the kitchen looking for something to drink and BAM! a bird flew out from behind the curtains right by my head! I have no idea how it got into my house, but it scared the crap out of me. I guess the cats will have some fun with this if I cant get it out of the house somehow. Well, I guess I’ll try to find it and scare it out the door somehow.
Oh Good god…
my boss is looking at me so strangely… you guys get me into so much trouble at work…
anyow, good luck catching the bird, but if it shits on your carpet, remember not to kick it to death…
I have located the intruder. He is now fly franically back and fourth in the “livingroom” (a cavernous room that is about 45’ by 25’ and has a 10’ ceiling, this room is unused bc it costs too much to heat) while chirping loudly. I attemted to go over to the door to the outside, but the little sucker dived at me. Time for attempt 2.
I’ve had avian intruders a couple of times. Get a large bath towel and throw it over the bird; you can then take it outside and release it.
Good luck!
No catching was required; I just opened the door and he flew right out. I still have no idea how he got in though.
Do you have a fireplace? If so, check the flue.
The aliens may have released him in the wrong environment after they were done studying him. They now know where you live. Make sure your aluminum hat is properly functional before they return.
Nope, no fireplace. There is an old, unused chimney that I have hear birds in before, but there are no uncovered openings to it in the house. I live in a very old drafty house, maybe there is an opening under an eve somewhere.
