Peeping...Pigeon
"Pssst! Aaron! Aaron! Wake up! What is that noise?!"
(One eye opens, looks at me disapprovingly) "What time is it?"
"It's 6:30. Do you hear that?"
"It's Saturday morning. It's early."
"But do you HEAR that?"
"Yeah...I hear it."
"What IS that?"
"it's a pigeon. Now go back to sleep."
(Silence)
"It's mooning us. It is actually showing us its pigeon butt."
"It can't even see in here. It doesn't even know you're there."
"Oh, it knows. It knows I despise its pigeon-y being and want it to stop making nests under our eaves. And that I am planning on getting some of those pigeon guards soon. It knows and it's looking for me."
"Go to sleep. It can't see you."
"You're sure? You're sure it can't see in here? Because I think it can."
"It can't. It can't see you. Go to sleep."

My parents have a robin that has nested on the shelf outside their bedroom window ... but I don't think it is ever people watching!

When Chris and I moved into our first home near YOU guys, we inherited a nasty pigeon problem. Our next door neighbors were letting the birds roost in the eaves of their front porch. Poop galore.
We subsequently found out that people in the neighborhood used to raise pigeons. Tastes like chicken, I suppose.
Of course, that was just ONE of the reasons we moved from that house.

Hahahahaha! We have a murder of crows who occasionally hang out on our gutters and bang on them and caw, and sometimes even sit on the front porch rail and try to look in the living room window, but the crows have never actually mooned us. Too funny!

When I lived in an apartment in Baltimore, a bird made her nest in the roof eaves. One of the babies feel out of the nest and somehow made its way into the apartment walls. It ended up in the wall between my bedroom and the dining room and could not get out. Oh yes, this happened on a holiday weekend, so for THREE DAYS all could here was this bird's wings on the drywall desperate to get out. The worst part? I had two cats. They raced between the two rooms everytime the bird made a movement all day and all NIGHT. Four holes in the walls and ceiling later the bird was rescued and released.

It CAN see you! Our skylight isn't nearly as clear as yours (it's that fantastic bubble-of-plexiglass style) yet our calico was involved in quite a scuffle with a raven/crow-type recently. The bird was going nuts and PECKING at the skylight while the cat stared up from the top of the stairs...
Don't underestimate bird-skylight vision :)
