[birdky] Cedar Waxwings

On July 17 about noon, I was in a MD's office on the third floor of The 
Springs, on Dutchman's Lane in St. Matthews, KY.

I looked out the window and saw a Cedar Waxwing trying it's best to get in. I 
was telling the workers there what the bird was and how surprised I was to 
see it there. They said the bird had been doing this for days.

The building is right next to the Watterson X-way, however, there are some 
tall River Birch planted around the building.

The bird kept up this behavior; not flying into the window, just looking in 
the window. It didn't seem to be fighting it's image. 

The windows from the outside of the building look something like two-way 
glass. I could see the reflection of trees in the windows.

What could cause this type of behavior? Seems too late for nesting.

Thanks,
