Windows can be too clean

As part of  deep cleaning, I was cleaning all windows inside and outside. I had finished downstairs and as I was cleaning the upstairs bedroom window, I heard a strange noise coming from downstairs. As I walked down, I saw what was making the noise; a hummingbird had flown through my open door, and was now desperately trying to fly out through the picture window. I reached for it with an index finger for him/her (it’s hard to tell with a hummingbird) and within seconds it was sitting on my index finger. As I walked to the door, the little bird flew away, so luckily it wasn’t hurt.

It just goes to show that there is also a thing as too clean windows. Hopefully no other birds will mistake my picture windows for an opening. All but three windows have screens, so those are never mistaken for openings.
