What you are looking at is a dove who flew into my sliding glass door. The dove lived, but left this highly unusual dust print of its body, head, wings, and feet.
I call this dust imprint on my glass door, the "Ghost Bird." This is my unusual take on the worldwide City Daily Photo monthly theme day. Click below to see other "Empty" theme day photos.
Sorry for the sun spots and streaks but I wanted to capture the fine details at sunset with the light streaming through the bird dust on the window. This was not easy to photograph.

This is a wonderful submission.
Wow, it must have it hard. Very original.
Amazing that the dove survived. And amazing eye and creativity on your part for turning that terrible moment in the life of the dove into this haunting image.
effet surprenant, peut etre un extra terrestre
Amazing image! Poor bird must have hit the window really hard...
I would say a difficult photo, indeed, Julie... but you did an absolutely magnificent job of it!
A ghost print... wow. This is so interesting (and just the slightest bit creepy... but not as creepy as if the bird had died).
Impressive, Julie... yes

I'm glad to hear the bird surviived. He must have been a bit stunned. Great idea for theme day.
This is indeed a most creative interpretation of the "empty" theme. Stunning photo.
I'm so glad the dove survived! I had a hummingbird hit my glass door earlier in the year and he wasn't so lucky. This is an excellent picture Julie!
This is so amazing, Julie! I had no idea a bird could leave such a 'print' on a glass... Glad it survived!
What a strange thing to find! Kind of creepy but great for the theme of empty.
Wow, that's incredible! Happy to hear he lived, strange imprint! Awesome take on Theme Day!
Fabulous shot -- I'm surprised the dove isn't an actual ghost bird.
How absolutely amazing. It looks like a real bird - just extraordinary. Fabulous for today. Well done!
That is awesome. It's like art. I'm glad the bird survived.
Absolutely amazing! Superb photo for theme day!
Great capture. Are you sure the bird really lived:) or are you just giving it a good spin?
Amazingly wonderful! I thought it was a real bird. And I can imagine the patience and determination it too to get the photo just right. (I am glad the dove survived, too.)
Wow, this is really amazing!
Wow Julie, interesting photograph and even more so the story behind it.
Thanks so much all the wonderful and supportive feedback you have left at AntiguaDailyPhoto.Com
Well that is a very different choice for the theme day. Love it!
Did Alfred Hitchcock have something to do with this Julie? What an amazing photo. I can't believe some of the detail. Great contribution to theme day.
Impressive image, this kind of captures are very unusual and is perfect for this theme. I guess this poor bird saw empty space in front of it.
