If the colors are not so bright it may be a female that sees her reflection and is trying to protect her mate from another female or a male, the same scenerio. Try to give a better description of the bird. How big?, ect. But it sounds a little like an agressive female cardinal. Not sure, do you have a pic? Can you please put some refractionary glaze paper on the window so she doen't hurt herself? Thank you!

Female cardinal, and she is flying into the window because she does know it's there. You may have to put some colored tape or something on it. I have seen birds break their necks flying into windows. It's sad, but you know if a full size window is clean enough, a person would walk right into one too.

Could be a red-winged blackbird with suicidal tendencies... They're beautiful birds.
Put some masking tape on your window in a big X pattern to stop him from hurting himself!

Sounds like a female cardinal to me. Hopefully she won't break her neck when she hits the window.

A not very bright one!
I concur with the first answer, a female cardinal.

You have to give your area, North America, England Hawaii?
There are just too many birds that can go by that description without knowing where it lives.

You need to put something on your window (stickers or something) to let the bird know that it cannot fly right through it!

One that could probably find a use for a gps tracking system and possibly a little tiny crash helmet.

Go to www.birds.cornell.edu/AllAboutBirds/BirdGuide/ or to the Audubon Society website to properly identify the bird.
