If you pull its head off you'll be able to see the make and model number. Pulling the head off is about the fastest and easiest way to kill sparrows and starlings in the hand, long as you don't mind blood. Where would the world be without teachers?

Pulling the head off is about the fastest and easiest way to kill sparrows and starlings in the hand, long as you don't mind blood. Where would the world be without teachers? On a campus with more starlings and sparrows than there could have been? The easiest non-bloody way is to hold the starling or sparrow in one hand, belly down against your fingers. Then, firm pressure with the thumb on the top of its head against your forefinger underneath its jaw will cave in the top of the skull like an eggshell. An advantage of this method too is it leaves the other had free to hold a trap entrance closed or whatever.

Did it fly into a window? Exactly. Laying on the ground right below. Thanks for the ID folks. 3,000 miles of an epic journey, night after night through rain, wind, lightning, over mountains, past cities, over vast expanses of water....... Driven by an ancient biological imperative to return to the land where she first drew breath, whatever the perils whatever the risks........ .....and then you guys left the lights on.......

Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Our north side of the house is pretty much all glass. We average about 4-5 a week. Apparently we accidentally built a Tweety bird auschwitz.
