Kookaburras used to line up on a long tree branch before charging from about 4 
m away and destroying the insect screens external side of our 1st floor windows 
in Blue Mtns - almost knocking themselves out.  Only half the windows were 
covered in screen and they seemed to prefer those (rather than the adjacent 
bare glass which you'd assume would have better reflections).

It is time for a list of confirmed reflection-attacking species among 
Australian birds.

I have personally seen the following.  There must be others.

Magpie-lark
Superb Fairy-wren
Noisy Miner
Red Wattlebird

I now add:  Spotted Pardalote,
