The bird looked entirely whole and unscathed, and so far untouched by maggots. We have lots of highly reflective glass windows, so my first thought was that it had flown into one of them. But the building is only two stories high, no more than 30 feet. Would a migrating warbler be flying so low? Could it have just become exhausted, incapable of flying, and simply fallen? Any other suggestions?
