One Saturday morning in October, Jen, Jess and I were sitting in the basement while Bill and Lynne were upstairs with Brynlee, Jen's little girl. All of a sudden we hear "OH!" and movement upstairs followed by a "BAM!" We ran upstairs to see what was going on. Turns out Lynne opened the back door and a bird flew in! After trying to fly into two windows with closed blinds, and pooping on the floor several times, it managed to find its way to a window without blinds, emphasis on WINDOW. This is the result:
Lynne gingerly scooped it off the bench with a shovel and placed it back outside on the porch. It laid there for a while before finally ending up in the position. Jen and I went out to take a look. After several minutes of it just sitting there like this, we decided to walk away. Just then it took flight, buzzed right by our heads and flew off into the field. It made Jen jump, which made me laugh! :)

Is that a Meadowlark? It probably will never come back with that kind of treatment. What kind of hosts are you guys? To be escorted out with a shovel?
I thought it was dead in the first picture. Never seen a bird like that before.
