A. Mobster-style cardinal with a vendetta against the Addison's.
B. A couple fries short of a Happy Meal, i.e. not so bright.
So let's see, option A? He hasn't been dive-bombing me whenever I go outside and I haven't received any death threats so I'm guessing that's probably not it.
Option B? Very likely BUT he doesn't seem stupid. Even though he is ramming into the window, he seems to know that it's a window. We've opened the window and he still continues to fly into it, just at whatever different angle it's at. The kids have stood there at the window and talked/yelled/laughed hysterically and he moves over to the tree for awhile but as soon as they're quiet, he comes right back. I see him fluttering around the tree outside our window, chatting with other birds. Hubby and I have BOTH gotten up in the window and said things, waved our hands, etc. and he acknowledges it all...but still continues to fly into it window, even if we're there. I don't think he's an idiot, though. But then again I'm not an expert on birds.
Option C? It is starting to get cold and someone suggested on my Facebook that perhaps he's just cold and wants us to let him in. I'm not really sure what to think about that. We do have birds here at Addison Ranch but they all stay outside in the chicken coop. As for food, we put some out in the tree and he's been eating it so I don't think that's an issue.

that is hilarious! Maybe he is tired of being wild and he wants to hang up his hat to be a house pet lol!
