Is it true that then when a Bird hits your window someone is going to die?

Question

Ok the other day I was sitting in the living room watching TV and a bird crashed into my patio door and flew away. Today a bird flew and crashed into my mom’s window and now she thinks that someone is going to die.

Answer 1

I've never heard of that.  Birds hit our window all the time.

Answer 2

No it is just a superstition. Birds often see the window as an open space, they see the reflection of the trees, land, sky, etc and they think they can fly through it.  If you find a bird that has hit the window put it in a container with a lid, like a shoe box and leave it somewhere warm and quiet for about an hour. Darkness will calm it and should revive it and you will be able to set it free.   If it has more serious injuries you need to contact a wildlife rehabber in your area

"Break up window reflections by sticking objects to the outside of the glass.

"Disrupt reflections with spray-on materials or soap"

"Attach branches in front of windows."

"Attach hanging objects to deter birds."

Answer 3

No, it doesn't mean somebody is going to die.  It means some young birds have just fledged from the nest and aren't very experienced in flying yet, so they get into crashes just like teenage drivers.
