Keep Your Windows Dirty-a Public Service Announcement

Here is A Public Service Announcement. Let me explain why you should “Keep Your Windows Dirty.” I love gazing out of our windows, but I am convinced that dirty windows save lives. Share it with your friends for a heads up.

Birdbrain

There is a particular word known as “birdbrain.” If you have heard “birdbrain” directed towards you, it probably was not a compliment; it was an insult to your intelligence. Here is an example. Kaleo spent an afternoon trying to catch his own tail—what a birdbrain. While I do not know the origin of the phrase, I have a theory involving windows.

Keep Your Windows Dirty—PSA

Mom and Dad like to keep the windows of the house spotless. They even clean up the residue from Kaleo’s drool, which could be daily. A few weeks ago, I was conserving energy underneath the large picture window; when “BLUMP,” a woodpecker, went headfirst into the window.

Upon inspection, birdbrain would fit, but I felt awful for the bird and its family. I gave it a few nudges and nothing.

“MOM” “DAD,” I barked. They came out and took a look at the bird.

Oh, poor thing.” Mom said.

“I will get a shovel,” Dad said.

“Snack!”

Kaleo Shouted.

As soon as mom and dad walked away, the woodpecker rolled over and flew off. Kaleo darted after it barking.

This specific incident was a happy one, but you would be surprised how often birds fly into that window. So to all the humans out there, do your part and save a life, keep your windows dirty. If you need help, I will happily enlist my birdbrain brother.
