Hello all. I'm not a bird watcher or anything, but I do have a bird that keeps coming in the house. From what I can tell it's a Bewick's Wren. I live in Oklahoma where it's 5 degrees and there's about a foot of snow. Neither of those things are in any way normal for here.
My 6 year old daughter is begging me "Save it Daddy, it forgot to go south." When a bird comes in the house I always just let it out. But It's unusually cold and I'd prefer her not to find it's frozen corpse next time she goes out to play. Also it just keeps coming back in whenever someone opens the door.
Is this bird actually coming in my house to avoid freezing, or it just being weird? Can I just keep shooing it outside without dooming it to a short life as a birdsicle?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
