The key is for the next time, birds love light. If you have a light on in one room it tends to stay there. And if the light is near a door it should be easier to leave the house
For those who are curious, it was a Bewick's Wren (I'm at least 90% sure) that decided Stephen and Mal's wreath and then house would be a great place to live. I've never had a bird fly into my parent's house, but we have had I believe two bats fly in through our attic. Both times were in the middle of the night and my dad woke me up running around the house slamming doors shut and trying to catch the bats with my butterfly net.
While you're right about what the Wren is doing, your very wrong about the species. It's a Carolina Wren. I live and Georgia and see them all the time and their range goes all over the south. The Bewick's Wren is a species only found in the western portions of America (always check ranges).
Story time: my aunt is the floor manager of a Walmart. A bird flew into the store and employees spent a WEEK trying to find it. Eventually it settled for nesting in an unsold flower basket in the garden center and became a local celebrity named Posey.
We had a bird break into the restaurant I work in years ago. The customers loved him surprisingly. We named him Sanchez. I actually got him to go out the front door once and he just hopped out while a guy was passing by. He just stopped and watched hahaha so this brought back memories!
Never had a bird in the house but we've had birds in classrooms at school, since we leave doors open to help air circulate. Our classrooms weren't all just in one big building, so this made it easy for random animals to find their way in. This one time in 3rd grade, we'd just come back from lunch and a little bird like the one in the video flew in with us. My teacher tried to shoo it out for maybe 15 minutes, but it just wouldn't leave. So she gave up, and just started teaching us our math lesson. It flapped around for a bit, before it settled on a bookshelf. 2 hours later, when the end of school bell rang, it started flying around again and finally left through a doorway. I guess it just wanted to learn some math?
Poor birdie! That's a Carolina wren. They're "cavity-nesting" birds. In other words... "If I fits, I sits. And also I build a nest here." I've read stories of them nesting in _all sorts_ of strange places... Even in people's shoes!
There's a museum/house in Atlanta called Wren's nest. It was the home of the writer of the Uncle Remus stories. He named it after the Carolina Wrens that nested in his mail box every year.
I had a pet budgie for several years, so I guess that counts as having a bird in the house :P But also, similar to what other people have said, I've had several experiences of birds in classrooms at school. Also once a wasp that terrorised my substitute English teacher. And once a possum died in the Japanese classroom so Japanese was moved to a different room for a week while they removed the body and aired the room out.
Well firstly, the grasshopper you showed on camera was really pretty; I've never seen one like that before, so I'm grateful you got it in camera. Secondly, I've had birds in my house before; when I lived in Illinois there were a few that flew down our chimney. The funniest part of these encounters is my mother is not a fan of birds, at least not wild ones anyway...as you can imagine it was quite the sight to see. Also, I have other bird and animals in my house stories but as this comment is already long I won't bother you with them all.
We used to get birds in the house all the time when I was a kid. They'd nest in the chimney over the spring and summer and then when fall and winter rolled around and we went to clean the chimney before starting the woodstove that year we'd sometimes get nests...or birds. Mom's still got a soot wing print on one of her curtains. She kept it because she liked the shape.
I found this whole bird thing SO much funnier than I should have. Hearing all the "Thunk" and "Thud" sounds made me laugh even harder. I actually had to pause the video at a couple points because my sides hurt from laughing.
Not quite the same thing, but I remember a time when a flying squirrel got into my house. I got to see it glide, so that was cool. It mostly hung out on top of a huge shelf we had that had a wreath on it for Christmas time.
This reminds me of a video I saw of a squirrel getting into someone's house and the mom filming her teenage son trying to catch the thing. Both hilarious results
hey i finally made it back here! this was the vlog that came out when i FIRST subscribed to the channel. now, five (wow) years later i've finally made it back along the journey.
It is a Nuthatch if google gave me the correct English birdname. We call em tree sticking bird (translated from dutch name for it) because they often can be seen hanging on the trunks of trees and walking up. Had one myself last year. Light disorients them. Mine crashed into my wall and spent a good 30 min just sitting in the basket I had laying arround before it flew away. it was a stormy day and I think the poor thing just got blown off course and collided with my back door. In elementary school we had a little church owl that had found a crack(building was old we had coats on in class during winter. there was no money to repair) somewhere and got into our building one stormy weekend. Our teacher called in an 'avian rescue' lady because its wing was badly damaged. She had to come from far though so we spent a whole monday having classes with a chuch owl perched on our teacher's desk.
Once in high school, a bird got into one of the buildings, as it was lunch time and some doors are usually kept open for people to move more easily. Class was about to start though, so I didn’t get to see how things resolved :/
This is funny, just recently there was a bird in our basement. We thought it was a rat the day before because we just heard it but never knew what it was. The next day, my brother saw something flying.
Haha, wow, the same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. It kept trying to fly through the closed window, so I was able to trap it in a container and free it.
When I lived in Iowa, there was the occasional bat. Here in Arizona, the cats love bringing small lizards into the house, while they're still alive. They did bring a pigeon in once, but I managed to save it and return it outside before there was lasting damage.
as a bird owner i have had birds in my house for years now, mine are smart buggers, they know how to undo their cage lock, so from time to time you can hear them fly about in the room they are in, and when they hear you come to the room they always go back into their cage but the cage door will not be properly closed so you know who was out of the cage also they have a thing for hamster wheels, like the running things, each cage has one and they all use their wheel to run in
We actually have this issue with the wreaths on our doors sometimes. We have started knocking on the door before opening it to get and birds that might be there to fly away before the door is opened so they don’t come in the house. Lol!
Never had a bird get into the house but did have one smack into my window. Can't remember exact details but had to put it into dark place for it to adjust and recover. Think it was shoe box with holes in it. Let it out after about an hour and it flew away
a few times we've gotten birds that have fallen down our chimney. They bang their heads on the windows a few times, but eventually got out without too much of a fuss. A better story is when our parakeet that was my moms class pet (shes a kindergarten teacher, and we brought it home for the summer) got OUT of his CAGE and started flying around, dive bombing us, with our dog running after it trying to eat it. that was fun
Poor bird xD I’ve tried that many times. My old house had big windows so birds would occasionally fly into them, and when they flew into the house it was very difficult to get them out because they would try to get out of the windows instead of the doors. :(
I've had a couple birds in my house, both from my cat bringing them in while they were alive. Unfortunately one was injured. We got it in a box pretty easily and brought it to a bird sanctuary in hopes they could help it. The other was a small crow that flew around quite a lot once it got free. Fortunately it was day time and somehow we managed to get it to fly out the front door after about 5 minutes. How we were able to get it out is even more amazing when thinking about it now because our entire first floor had no doors on the rooms except the bathroom and laundry room and our hall was really open up to the second floor where the bird flew up to for a bit. We kept both the back and front doors open and miraculously it managed to swoop and fly at the front door in good timing despite there being a large window above it on the second floor of the hall that was beyond anyone's reach and where it could've easily stayed if it wanted to. That and the chandelier that was equally beyond reach... Guess we were really lucky after watching your trials in this vlog xD;;
I don't have a bird story (or at least one that I personally experienced and remembered), but I will say that I got curious and looked up the bug at the beginning of the vlog; it's a Handsome Meadow katydid (Orchelimum pulchellum)!
Never had a bird (besides pet birds that are meant to be in the house), but we did have a very irate squirrel once. We had to gather a neighbour and set up barriers along the hall so we could chase it out with brooms. For the next month after squirrels were chewing up our window screens.
Never had a bird in the house before but there was once a chipmunk in my grandma’s house while we were over. It ended up running into one of the bedrooms so we locked it in there while we built a wall with cushions and blankets guiding it towards the door so that would be the easiest path for it. Worked like a charm. Opened the bedroom door, chased it out, and it followed our path right back out the door.
I had the exact same thing happen to me. Had a Christmas wreath on the front door, opened the door and a bird was on it, bird flew in the house. We were able to coax it out the back door without too much issue, but yeah I wouldn't want to go through that again
Man, I have a cat door (Well a dog door but I have cats, not a dog) and birds will find their way in or cats will BRING birds in. It's awful. Plus, in like 6th grade a humming bird got into the school and everyone (including me) was chasing the poor thing around.
A magpie found its way into our house once. It skipped, hopped and flew all around the living room until we finally managed to lead it outside. Needless to say it pooped everywhere, because that’s what birds do, poop everywhere. That was not a fun time cleaning up. Learnt my lesson about keeping the doors wide open on a warm summers day though.
One time when we came home late at night a bird flew in as we walked back inside. It took a good while for it to leave. It really liked perching on this bird decoration we have.
When I was really little we had a bat in the house. I don't actually remember the bat, but I remember my dad running around trying to get it out. Every once in a while we'll get a bird on our screened porch, since there are gaps between the roof and the one wall. It's never taken that long to chase them out, though.
My family had a hummingbird run into a window and daze itself, we had an outside cat at the time, so my mom held it until it regained it's senses then flew off. Really cool moment.
Two years ago we had a wreath hanging on our front porch and one day we noticed a dove had built a nest on it. She ended up staying there and eventually had two babies. It was rad but I was always worried she'd fly inside
The same thing with birds getting in buildings happened in my art class. No one tried to get it outside or anything, our teacher just opened all the doors to the outside and waited for it to fly out on its own.
Honestly wild birds in my house is such a common occurrence that we pay them no mind, we just open the front door and the windows and let them leave by themselves XD
Hey the bird made interesting vlog material instead of "We got back and worked and are about to have dinner" Also I like how you played "Chirp" by C418 at the very end of the vlog
I know that this is really late, but this bird reminded me of a time in high school when a bird interrupted my English class. We had all gathered our desks in a circle, and we were doing a sort of debate or something. In the middle of the debate, we heard a loud thump. It turns out that a baby bird had flown straight into the window. However, that wasn't the only time this happened. Apparently, that exact same bird had flown into the same window during several other classes. Thankfully it was never able to get into the classroom, but it was as if that bird was cursed to continuously fly into windows.
That the bird survived is a miracle half of the time it smacked into something you thought now its dead, but its seemed unharmed but could have been because of chock also. This is my dark humor I could not stop laughing that the bird would not want to leave and stephen chasing it. But we can only hope it wasn't getting any lasting effects from smashing into things because birds can die by smashing into a window ones
I know it's been some months so I'm sure this has already been resolved, but I hope Mal put the wreath on inside part of the door. At least the door would still be fall themed!
I think the little guy is really cute, I've always loved birds. I feel so bad whenever he smacks into something. I hope he's alright, even though he made your life hell for 20 minutes.
How about a hook next to the door for the wreath. That way Mal can have her wreath, the bird can live in it, and less of a chance the bird comes in. You can get command hooks that won't damage the house if your worried about that.
I've never had a bird in the house, but when I was in elementary school, a bat had somehow gotten into the building and was flying to one end of a hallway and back again. Unfortunately, said hallway was also where my classroom was. So I was putting my stuff in my locker, unaware of what's happened. Next thing I know, someone yells at me, "Kevin, duck!" I happen to look, and the bat was flying right at me and smack! Flew right into me and fell to the floor. I carefully picked the bat up and carried it outside and laid it on a nearby bush by the school's entrance. Thankfully, I didn't get in trouble. I don't know what happened to it after that, but I feel like there's now one more bat in the world now because of 5th grade me.
A bird once got into my basement quite a few years ago. Don't remember how long ago exactly, but I know it happened. I think we tried to use a pan to deal with it
There was one time in Highland Rams Highschool, I was in government class doing studying, until bird flew inside the classroom window, and this bird was on the celling lights, and trying to get out and rammed into the window, thought it was opened.
Around the same time last year we found out we had a little guest of our own in the basement, but they were much worse, because they had fleas. I'm not one for trying new things, but now I know definitively that I HATE FLEAS.
Yeah birds get lost in big box stores and malls pretty often. Reminds me of something. My aunt is the floor manager of a Walmart that had a bird that kept trying to nest in the garden center a few years back. so instead of constantly having to relocate the poor thing, my aunt just bought a hanging flower basket and kept it just for the bird to use.
We used to live in an apartment and one day, we opened the balcony door and in comes a pigeon. It kept flying around the living room and making it impossible to shoot it out. Eventually, it flew out on its own. The funniest part was my sister screaming and running into her room.
Mal might be able to put the wreath back up if you get a glass/screen door to put in front of the main door. Of course, you would need permission from your landlord, but it could prove worth it.
My family had a bird find a way to nest in our chimney (which let us know that our screen at the top had a hole in it). My dad heard scratching in the woodstove (completely enclosed fire burning house item vs an open fireplace if anyone is confused on how the bird was trapped) during the Summer time and opened the door hoping to find it in the back to trap and remove. Instead it decided to fly out into the living room. My parents still have the bird shaped soot mark on their living room wall where it flew into it. They said it ads character to the room. That's the only involuntary bird. My sister has a pet bird that has a lifespan of 35 years so she'll be having a bird in her house for quite a while.
We had a bat in our house once. It flew around in our livingroom for a minute or so and then decided that it didn´t like our place and flew out the way it came in. Nothing other than that happened we were just caught so offguard that all we did was laught while it was there.
One time a swallow got in my house because they'd been building a nest on our porch light. Mom was scared to death and screaming, but we cornered it in my room until it was too tired to fly around and I just picked it up, pulled off some cobwebs that had gotten on its face from flying into them, and then I took it outside and let it go free.
The entire bird part needs to be in the next Fan Favorites.
I submitted the entire moment, from 1:24 to 7:20. EVERYBODY DO THE SAME.
Thomas Joosten I just did
That was quite the birden
stephen is not a disney princess: confirmed
Kassye Evans did better than the woman and the bear with her boat
He wanted to avenge his fallen brother you ate earlier.
On this episode of StephenSafari, we encounter the rare Blue Eyes Grass Hopper and the equally rare Feathered Home Invader.
A wild Pidgey appears!
Cue wild pokemon theme
Go Mareep! "Mareep cry"
The key is for the next time, birds love light. If you have a light on in one room it tends to stay there. And if the light is near a door it should be easier to leave the house
For those who are curious, it was a Bewick's Wren (I'm at least 90% sure) that decided Stephen and Mal's wreath and then house would be a great place to live. I've never had a bird fly into my parent's house, but we have had I believe two bats fly in through our attic. Both times were in the middle of the night and my dad woke me up running around the house slamming doors shut and trying to catch the bats with my butterfly net.
While you're right about what the Wren is doing, your very wrong about the species. It's a Carolina Wren. I live and Georgia and see them all the time and their range goes all over the south. The Bewick's Wren is a species only found in the western portions of America (always check ranges).
I very much hope they checked for bat droppings after the fact because breathing in the stuff from their droppings can be pretty deadly.
I’m instantly thinking of the vlog “BIRDS”
conveniently that vlog is currently to the right of the video second from the top
1:24 - 7:30 for fan favorites
Story time: my aunt is the floor manager of a Walmart.
A bird flew into the store and employees spent a WEEK trying to find it. Eventually it settled for nesting in an unsold flower basket in the garden center and became a local celebrity named Posey.
We had a bird break into the restaurant I work in years ago. The customers loved him surprisingly. We named him Sanchez. I actually got him to go out the front door once and he just hopped out while a guy was passing by. He just stopped and watched hahaha so this brought back memories!
Never had a bird in the house but we've had birds in classrooms at school, since we leave doors open to help air circulate. Our classrooms weren't all just in one big building, so this made it easy for random animals to find their way in. This one time in 3rd grade, we'd just come back from lunch and a little bird like the one in the video flew in with us. My teacher tried to shoo it out for maybe 15 minutes, but it just wouldn't leave. So she gave up, and just started teaching us our math lesson. It flapped around for a bit, before it settled on a bookshelf. 2 hours later, when the end of school bell rang, it started flying around again and finally left through a doorway. I guess it just wanted to learn some math?
Was the bird harder to catch than the rabbit in Mario 64
I mean, technically they didn't catch it; they just chased it out of their house.
I was dying the whole time the bird was flying around XD
Funnily enough i had a similar incident with a bat.
Poor birdie! That's a Carolina wren. They're "cavity-nesting" birds. In other words... "If I fits, I sits. And also I build a nest here." I've read stories of them nesting in _all sorts_ of strange places... Even in people's shoes!
There's a museum/house in Atlanta called Wren's nest. It was the home of the writer of the Uncle Remus stories. He named it after the Carolina Wrens that nested in his mail box every year.
@@adsventuresome7511 that's a nice fact, thanks for sharing
Stephen, you can keep it as a pokemon. You can call it a Pidgey.
Poor bird 😥I feel so bad for it, it must have been so confused
I had a pet budgie for several years, so I guess that counts as having a bird in the house :P
But also, similar to what other people have said, I've had several experiences of birds in classrooms at school. Also once a wasp that terrorised my substitute English teacher. And once a possum died in the Japanese classroom so Japanese was moved to a different room for a week while they removed the body and aired the room out.
Bird is the word.
Well firstly, the grasshopper you showed on camera was really pretty; I've never seen one like that before, so I'm grateful you got it in camera.

When I was still a baby, we were moving into our current house and an owl somehow got inside and was sitting on my mom's cabinet
Not quite the same thing, but I remember a time when a flying squirrel got into my house. I got to see it glide, so that was cool. It mostly hung out on top of a huge shelf we had that had a wreath on it for Christmas time.

Added this vid to my favorites.
no matter how many times i come back to this vlog, i shudder with mal at 3:56 lol
hey i finally made it back here! this was the vlog that came out when i FIRST subscribed to the channel. now, five (wow) years later i've finally made it back along the journey.
Lucky it was not a bat.
Funny that you say that... see my comment for a bat story. :D
If you opened the front door the bird probably would've just flown out
*Nevermind it's a stupid bird
I mean it kept flying into everything so he probably lost multiple little bird braincells in those couple hours of his little life.
It is a Nuthatch if google gave me the correct English birdname. We call em tree sticking bird (translated from dutch name for it) because they often can be seen hanging on the trunks of trees and walking up. Had one myself last year. Light disorients them.

This should be a memorable moment, just the whole bird catching part-
What did you name the bird?
This is funny, just recently there was a bird in our basement. We thought it was a rat the day before because we just heard it but never knew what it was. The next day, my brother saw something flying.
Wow, Flying rats are scary.
I love how the vlog where Alex goes "Birds!" is in the suggested videos area for me.
This is the urban wildlife vlog. First the bug (a very pretty bug), then the bird.
Haha, wow, the same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. It kept trying to fly through the closed window, so I was able to trap it in a container and free it.
Interesting bird, it looked like a Wren, going to look into it. I used to be a bird watcher when I was younger.
No birds, but i have had bats get into my house twice. Neither experience was fun.
When I lived in Iowa, there was the occasional bat.
Here in Arizona, the cats love bringing small lizards into the house, while they're still alive.
They did bring a pigeon in once, but I managed to save it and return it outside before there was lasting damage.

So Steven was saying 50 degrees is cold, but tomorrow (2-12-18) is going to be -5 to -15 here in Wisconsin.
Never had a bird get into the house but did have one smack into my window. Can't remember exact details but had to put it into dark place for it to adjust and recover. Think it was shoe box with holes in it. Let it out after about an hour and it flew away

This entire thing just need alex going "Birds, birds!" every time the bird flight.
Poor bird xD I’ve tried that many times. My old house had big windows so birds would occasionally fly into them, and when they flew into the house it was very difficult to get them out because they would try to get out of the windows instead of the doors. :(

The bird was great as is, but the fact that the outro music is called "Chirp" makes it so much better

We've had a bird come down our chimney a couple of times. In the room with the nice cream furniture. Not fun trying to evict it.
A vlog with animal friends is always a good vlog.
i bet Dan was laughing his ass off when he's editing this vlog
I had the exact same thing happen to me. Had a Christmas wreath on the front door, opened the door and a bird was on it, bird flew in the house. We were able to coax it out the back door without too much issue, but yeah I wouldn't want to go through that again
Man, I have a cat door (Well a dog door but I have cats, not a dog) and birds will find their way in or cats will BRING birds in. It's awful. Plus, in like 6th grade a humming bird got into the school and everyone (including me) was chasing the poor thing around.
The insect in the beginning is a handsome meadow katydid I think

Insert Glados saying "BIRD BIRD KILL IT IT'S EVIL"
My family had a hummingbird run into a window and daze itself, we had an outside cat at the time, so my mom held it until it regained it's senses then flew off. Really cool moment.
Two years ago we had a wreath hanging on our front porch and one day we noticed a dove had built a nest on it. She ended up staying there and eventually had two babies. It was rad but I was always worried she'd fly inside
The same thing with birds getting in buildings happened in my art class. No one tried to get it outside or anything, our teacher just opened all the doors to the outside and waited for it to fly out on its own.
Lol I've had as bird and a squirrel in my house before... Interesting times
Honestly wild birds in my house is such a common occurrence that we pay them no mind, we just open the front door and the windows and let them leave by themselves XD
This reminds me of that one moment from DKC3. Bird! Bird!
Hey the bird made interesting vlog material instead of "We got back and worked and are about to have dinner" Also I like how you played "Chirp" by C418 at the very end of the vlog
Little guy must be friends with that frog from "This Will Be Great!" (day whatever i can't remember)
I know that this is really late, but this bird reminded me of a time in high school when a bird interrupted my English class.
We had all gathered our desks in a circle, and we were doing a sort of debate or something. In the middle of the debate, we heard a loud thump. It turns out that a baby bird had flown straight into the window. However, that wasn't the only time this happened. Apparently, that exact same bird had flown into the same window during several other classes. Thankfully it was never able to get into the classroom, but it was as if that bird was cursed to continuously fly into windows.
That the bird survived is a miracle half of the time it smacked into something you thought now its dead, but its seemed unharmed but could have been because of chock also.
This is my dark humor I could not stop laughing that the bird would not want to leave and stephen chasing it.
But we can only hope it wasn't getting any lasting effects from smashing into things because birds can die by smashing into a window ones
Fan favourite moments 1:24-7:20 bird moment :p
I've had insects, spiders, cats, mice and frogs randomly get in my house... but birds? That would be another to mark off.
I know it's been some months so I'm sure this has already been resolved, but I hope Mal put the wreath on inside part of the door. At least the door would still be fall themed!
My cat brought in a few live animals in her lifetime. Sometimes it was birds. One time it was a hummingbird. That was fun.
wow, what A Bird Story
Outside of the main front door, we have a screen/glass door depending on the season, so birds and such can't get into our wreaths.
I think the little guy is really cute, I've always loved birds. I feel so bad whenever he smacks into something. I hope he's alright, even though he made your life hell for 20 minutes.
How about a hook next to the door for the wreath. That way Mal can have her wreath, the bird can live in it, and less of a chance the bird comes in. You can get command hooks that won't damage the house if your worried about that.
I've never had a bird in the house, but when I was in elementary school, a bat had somehow gotten into the building and was flying to one end of a hallway and back again. Unfortunately, said hallway was also where my classroom was. So I was putting my stuff in my locker, unaware of what's happened. Next thing I know, someone yells at me, "Kevin, duck!" I happen to look, and the bat was flying right at me and smack! Flew right into me and fell to the floor. I carefully picked the bat up and carried it outside and laid it on a nearby bush by the school's entrance. Thankfully, I didn't get in trouble. I don't know what happened to it after that, but I feel like there's now one more bat in the world now because of 5th grade me.
Poyo poyo!!!
Memorable vlog indeed
Still a great vlog 😂
A bird once got into my basement quite a few years ago. Don't remember how long ago exactly, but I know it happened. I think we tried to use a pan to deal with it
There was one time in Highland Rams Highschool, I was in government class doing studying, until bird flew inside
the classroom window, and this bird was on the celling lights, and trying to get out and rammed into the window, thought it was opened.
Oh one of the many joys of living in a house: getting a winged intruder :')
Catching up on vlogs and omg I could not stop laughing at this
Around the same time last year we found out we had a little guest of our own in the basement, but they were much worse, because they had fleas.
I'm not one for trying new things, but now I know definitively that I HATE FLEAS.
The birb is Peggy in bird form.
Never had a bird in my house, but at the Target I work at we get visits from birds all the time.
Yeah birds get lost in big box stores and malls pretty often.
Reminds me of something. My aunt is the floor manager of a Walmart that had a bird that kept trying to nest in the garden center a few years back. so instead of constantly having to relocate the poor thing, my aunt just bought a hanging flower basket and kept it just for the bird to use.
So what's the bird's name? For vlog wiki lore purposes
Gosh Stephen sounded so much like his mom when he started chanting no
We used to live in an apartment and one day, we opened the balcony door and in comes a pigeon. It kept flying around the living room and making it impossible to shoot it out. Eventually, it flew out on its own. The funniest part was my sister screaming and running into her room.
Mal might be able to put the wreath back up if you get a glass/screen door to put in front of the main door. Of course, you would need permission from your landlord, but it could prove worth it.
No bird but we have had a squirrel in the house before.
My family had a bird find a way to nest in our chimney (which let us know that our screen at the top had a hole in it). My dad heard scratching in the woodstove (completely enclosed fire burning house item vs an open fireplace if anyone is confused on how the bird was trapped) during the Summer time and opened the door hoping to find it in the back to trap and remove. Instead it decided to fly out into the living room. My parents still have the bird shaped soot mark on their living room wall where it flew into it. They said it ads character to the room.
That's the only involuntary bird. My sister has a pet bird that has a lifespan of 35 years so she'll be having a bird in her house for quite a while.
We had a bat in our house once. It flew around in our livingroom for a minute or so and then decided that it didn´t like our place and flew out the way it came in. Nothing other than that happened we were just caught so offguard that all we did was laught while it was there.
One time a swallow got in my house because they'd been building a nest on our porch light. Mom was scared to death and screaming, but we cornered it in my room until it was too tired to fly around and I just picked it up, pulled off some cobwebs that had gotten on its face from flying into them, and then I took it outside and let it go free.
