Windex Clean

I'm sure everyone has seen the commercials for Windex where the birds fly right into the window or glass doors or the even the most recent one where the man runs into the glass doors and the birds laugh. I always thought the commercials were were silly and wondered if that really did happen because I'd never seen it happen. Well...it does! While leaving church this morning, I opened the glass doors and saw a helpless bird on the ground, lying on it's side. Upon first glance he appeared to have been badly injured and missing a leg. I called for one of the men leaving to please help the little bird because it was badly hurt and still alive. I was feeling quite sorry for it, wondering what could be done to help it. I then pulled my very curious boys away from the poor animal and headed to the van to leave. The men thinking they were going to have to put this poor bird out of its misery and dispose of it were shocked when it stood up and proceeded to fly away. The silly bird was perfectly fine and had just flown into the door and knocked himself out. Upon coming too...he flew away. I was quite relieved the bird was fine and had to laugh at it once we all realized what had happened. I now really think the ads are funny knowing it really does happen. What a funny way to start the day for us and the bird!
