Why does this robin insist on repeatedly flying into a Moraga couple's glass door?
Briefly

A reader reports a robin habitually flying into their bedroom's sliding door each morning and afternoon. Despite various attempts to deter the bird with scare tactics, nothing has worked. The article suggests that the robin likely sees a reflection of the surrounding environment or its own image, leading to repeated collisions. It advises on ways to mitigate reflections, such as applying temporary screens, using soap, painting the glass, or placing vinyl stickers. For a more permanent solution, one can consider specialized products that minimize reflection without obstructing light.
