Rant: Bought those fancy hawk silhouette stickers for $25

Put them on the big window facing my yard, and a robin still smacked right into the glass between them yesterday. They look nice, but maybe the gaps are too wide... what spacing actually works?

Yeah, the spacing thing is tricky. I read that the stickers can work, but birds try to fly through any gap bigger than their wingspan. So for small birds, two inches might still be too wide. It's more about blocking the flight path than just breaking up the reflection.

Ugh same thing happened to me. I put some up and a sparrow still hit the window. How close together are they supposed to be?

Heard they need to be like two inches apart?
