Stupid Robin!! He's attacking his own reflection in your window. Trying to drive off, what he believes is, an interloper into his territory. Anything to break up the reflection will cure his confusion. Strips of ribbon hung on the outside of the window work well. Duct Tape works, but it's messy to remove. Strands of yarn hung outside. Good luck!!

A robin may flutter its wings against a window because it sees its reflection and thinks it's a rival bird encroaching on its territory. The robin is trying to intimidate the "intruder" and protect its territory by displaying aggression.

How many wings does a bee has?

Honey bees have 2 pairs wings. The front wings are larger than the hind wings and the two are synchronized in flight with a row of wing hooks (humuli, singular: humulus) on the hind wing that hitch into a fold on the rear edge of the front wing. When the bee is at rest, the wings separate and fold flat against the thorax.


What kind of bird looks like a robin except for the white on its wings and head?

The bald eagle A robin weighs about 4 oz.; a bald eagle about 3 lbs. I don't think anyone thinks a robin and a bald eagle look alike, presumably the questioner is referring to some white markings and not to pure white areas. As robins are members of the thrush family, the questioner is probably looking for a type of thrush, although non-birders may think mockingbirds resemble robins. In this vein, some may think finches resemble robins, too; though they are much smaller, they do have great variation in markings. Or perhaps the red-breasted nuthatch is the sought-after avian; in coloration, it bears the closest resemblance to the robin.
