Put pictures of owls on the windows. I think just the outline would do. I saw this at Science north in Sudbury.

I like the plastic stickers, but they get pricey when you have as much window area as we have, especially since they should be replaced every two years.
Is there anything else I can do?

My husband said he saw that same cardinal (don't have too many) trying to walk up the windshield of my car this morning. He kept sliding back down to the windshield wiper and trying again. Had to give him an A for effort but it was comical! He's still looking in the windows but he seems to be the only peeping bird I have around here.

You may not like owls, but if you could find a lawn ornament about a foot tall, perch him on a post or even your table on the deck - or someplace where birds can see them - birds hate owls!! owls are preditors of birds - birds will stay away.
