About a week ago I was awakened at first light by a strange noise emanating 
 from my bathroom.  At first I thought it was a plumbing problem, but when 
I  went to investigate, found it was only a bird attacking the glass.
 
Over the years I have seen this happen many times, usually by a cardinal,  
but also other birds.  I had a pileated one year attack my rear view mirror  
and watched a vermilion do the same in Arizona some time ago.  But this was 
 a first: a Great-crested flycatcher.  He has been back each morning  since.
 
Perhaps the ABA should start a new category: WAMAB's
