[va-richmond-general] Strange Bluebird Behavior

I have had Bluebirds for years, but have never seen this.  
 
There is a male that has been bumping against my sliding glass door  and 
hanging on the door frame for the last few days.  He is not  hitting the door 
hard 
enough to hurt himself.  There is a female  staying nearby and they appear to 
be mating when the male is not bumping  into the door.  The male took a break 
from the door yesterday but instead  continued the same activity with my 
truck outside mirror, leaving a fecal mess  to clean up.  Today he is back at 
the 
door.
 
I know Pileated Woodpeckers will fight their reflection and I am  wondering 
if this is what the Bluebird is doing.  Does anyone have any  thoughts or have 
seen Bluebirds act this way before?
 
Tx,
Wade
