Unusual Bird Behavior - Bird Repeatedly Attacks Reflection in Winter



Birds attacking their own reflections in windows or mirrors during the spring breeding season to ward off rivals and defend their territory when hormones are raging is a well known and frequently observed phenomena. But I have never seen a bird exhibit this type of behavior on their wintering grounds until this December 18th. The increasing ferocity of a yellow throated warbler attacking its reflection for 10 minutes in a Campark TC06 trail camera https://shrsl.com/3nk72 that I use to observed birds is quite remarkable and not easily explained.
