There is a bird or birds that comes to sleep under my side porch awning every night. Anyone know what it is?
August 2, 2010 Bird House Feeder
There is NO nest, just a bird (or two birds, I can’t tell) that comes at night and tucks itself in the corner of the awning roof, at the low end. I can’t see it’s head because it is all curled up onto itself. I have a motion light that goes on and off, and we go in and out the door with the dog several times at night, and the bird never moves. In the morning, it is gone. Then the next night, it is back again. I don’t mind it being there – I’m just wondering if anyone knows that it is. We live in Pennsylvania, in case anyone needs to know that for types of birds. I have several bird feeders and a bird bath in the front and on the opposite side of the house. I do have quite a few birds living in bushes by the feeders and there is quite a bit of bird traffic everyday in my yard. It is not cold here at night, but it has been getting cooler at night = maybe like 65 degrees at the lowest?
***added details*** – sorry, I didn’t even think to add a description of the bird. I just assumed you would all know! It is NOT a pigeon, we do not have them where I live (it is pretty subruban, almost rural). The bird is SMALL, and would probably fit in the palm of a hand. From what I can see, it is brown and/or grayish with some lighter spots on the feathers. If I could see the head, I would know what it is, but its head is tucked around somewhere out of sight. I shine a flashlight on it to try and figure out what it is, but I still can’t see its head.
*I took a PICTURE tonight. I don’t think I can put in on here. If anyone thinks they can help me, email me and I will send you the picture. Thank you*

Hummingbirds are fun, entertaining, full of energy and it’s easy to attract hummingbirds.
Not that it would necessarily help, but a detailed description would help…….this may help:

Without a better description, picture, etc, it’s hard to tell.
Could it be just a plain pigeon (gray body, slightly colored wings)? I have a friend, and he had a bird do the same thing.
Its hard without the description, but probably an Ostrich!
