Scream - get it out!!

Scream I got a big black bird in my house and the stupid thing won’t leave!!
It must have flown in the door and for the past half hour it’s been attempting to bash its way out through the window. I’ve tried 2 capture the silly thing when I do this it’s like it’s trying to attack me mad. I managed to open windows wider it’s like the stupid things not noticed, got a towel to try and manoeuvre it out the window and it pecked my hand pissed. GRRRRR tell it 2 get out someone come and get it out 4 me now!! fuse

How about getting a sizeable box...

Put some food right in it...

wait for bird to enter box...

Shut lid on it and carry it out....


I've never tried it....not many birds flying in my place ..pout

But it might work...hmmm

Close off the room if you can. If you can't close a door, hang a sheet over the entrance. Open a window, you can place a broom stick leading from the floor to the window if the bird is on the floor. Or you can balance one on the window sill It'll gravitate towards something that looks familiar - a broom is kinda like a branch. Turn off all noise and then leave. It'll find it's way to the window and will take off.

DO NOT try to catch it. That is asking for serious trouble.

Give it time to leave. Remember it wants out of there are much as you want it out. Crows are extremely intelligent birds, it will figure how to get out, you just have to stop freaking it out by being around it.

I tried everything it just would not leave in the end I waited until it got tired sneaked in with oven gloves (2 protect my hands lol ) and a bath towel, threw bath towel over it and captured it woot! then released the crow into garden then ran back into house and shut the windows and doors wasnt taken the chance it getting back in again lol

Thanku everyone 4 ur advice grouphug
