There’s a female cardinal that nests in the bush outside my camper. For the last ENTIRE YEAR it has been attacking its reflection in my window. I put up a tarp to cover it and it would attack its reflection in the little inch that the tarp didn’t cover. She’s literally doing it right now lol
Edit: she had a mate a few months ago but I haven’t seen him in a while. He would sit and watch her attack her reflection
no they have a lot more feeling in their beaks than one would think, id say kinda similar to turtles/tortoises carpaces. Some actually like being lightly scratched there
I suspect that this bird is a pet, as it seems that its Left eye doesn't function. Clearly, it would not survive in the wild. I could be mistaken, though.....as that blue eye flap may just be closed. Hard to determine.. He/She's a cutie, fur'sur!!
Thanks for your submission, Luigi_Spina!

Beautiful animals. Dumb as rocks. I watched one attack its reflection in a window for a solid thirty minutes.

We all need a partner who cheers us on as we fight our demons.
Draw a line on the window to break up the reflection
The key to a successful relationship is to support the quirks of your SO.
You sure it’s a female? I have same situation with a male (bright red) - all year and moved to different windows in my house.
Yes it’s a brown female. She had a mate for a while that would sit and watch her attack my window lol
Interesting. I thought only males did that during mating. Mine does it daily!!
I figured she had eggs and was “protecting” her babies? Idk how long they parent the young and I also didn’t check lol. She’s out there right now
Had the same issue with a Cardinal many years ago at my parents home. This bird would attack its reflection in the window.
It did this on and off for 2 years.
WANNA FIGHT ME? WELL TOUCAN PLAY THAT GAME, BUDDY!
Toucan... play at that game.
theyre so cute fr
If you run their beak do they feel it? Isnt it like if you had your nails rubbed?

Thanks for that info. Good to know. Makes this video all the better
I work with animals. Toucans are amazing and perfect.
"Follow my nose! It always knows!"
If you are old enough to remember this, remember to take your arthritis medication.
For flavors of fruit, just follow my snoot!
That's so cool! Didn't know they were so friendly.
Because they aren't. They've been observed eating chicks of many bird species.
I thought they only ate Froot Loops 😔
Tookie tookie bird!

He looks so soft for a bird with such a dramatic beak.
Nothing like a good beak scratch!
Cadê os ovos e filhotes de outros pássaros no cardápio... Animal magnífico!
It’s cool to see them in the wild in South America
Majestic ! What a beak ! r/birds would love it
I wonder if he is from Tijuana.. 🤔
Beautiful..don’t see many clips that close up
What a beautiful bird!
OP toucan opportunity to pet that bird
Toucans will always remind me of a Billy Mayes YTP.
I love that it just flips the food into its mouth
Beautiful Bird & You Got A Chance To Pet It. Nice !
Beautiful! As much as I love this I think they should always be free, not captive. (I would love to feed and pet them though)
Look at those eyes! Wow!🤩
Hey. Those aren’t Froot Loops.
Toucan play at this game...
My brother had one like that. Mean as hell.
World's most beautiful bird.
just follow your nose
Where are the Fruit Loops?
I wonder where the Fruit Loops are?
Fourcans eat twice as much...
But does it lay fruit loops?
Is he really eating fruit loops? 🙂 A. Toucan eating fruit loops
