Male Cardinal Red Bird in My House

I came home to a Cardinal flying around in my house. I did my good deed for the day and helped this beautiful red bird get out of the confinements of our house into the great wide open. This is my documentary of trying to get the Cardinal out of my house. He decided it was necessary to poop on my Mac.

@RubyAkiou She's doing great! I need to show her this video sometime as I can guarantee she doesn't remember it. Thanks for asking.

I think you handled the situation as best you could. Those people who say let the bird figure it out don't realize that the bird will freak out if they can't get out. I have had a junco get into my home and she injured herself flying into a wall of all things (while I was opening all the windows) and broke 1/3 of her beak off. I had to physically restrain her and stop the blood flow so she wouldn't injure herself more. Fortunately I know she lived because I have seen her since at my feeder.

@Ratraccoon Thanks for the info. Cool story. I have not been through any formal bird training so it was kind of ad-libbed :) I see Cardinals all the time in our backyard and hopefully one of them is him.

At that point he was probably in shock and exhausted. You can see his mouth open breathing heavily. Glad he's free.

He'd leave if it wasn't for the damn force field in the way.

What a gentle soul.

I've had birds stuck in the house before. They get panicked, stunned and seem a bit dumb for a bit, then they fly free! What a sweetie you are to that pretty cardinal!

It left such a nice present. Dontcha know that is good luck? :)

[LionGoddess1]

i think its stunned from the window collision.. maybe brain hemmorhaging.

[AlashleaChomass]
