"Holy Astringent Plum-like Fruit"

 

On account of the giant herds of invading redpolls pillaging our feeders, at times well over a hundred carpeting the snow around the cabin, there was an alarming number of collisions with the window closest to the feeders. When the light was right it would create the illusion of open air and so every day we'd hear a whump. Sometimes even a feather would stay stuck on the glass - examination afterwards always revealed no injuries or deaths btw, probably because they couldn't build up any speed from their starting point nearby on the ground. So my first attempt was a temporary silhouette of a bird of prey, like maybe a hawk, or raven. But as astutely pointed out by MoochieBear, it was far more reminiscent of a somewhat similar logo. Hmmm...

...which inevitably leads down another rabbit-hole. I might not be so much into binging out on any other media anymore than the original excuse to curl up on the couch with a kitty for companionship + comfort.
