I called one of the science teachers (who always rescues the birds who enter my room) and he sent up an AG student to rescue the bird. After about 10 minutes the bird was captured and set free. Unfortunately, the bird was injured in the "capture." There are now blood streaks on the ceiling of my room. Thankfully, the science teacher called and told me the wound was superficial and that the bird flew happily away after a short rest.
Just in case you are interested, the bird is a Red-bellied Nuthatch. It was migrating (it is not normally found in Northwest Ohio). Here is a picture of what it looked like:

That is just crazy!
You & your birds! :-)
Rowan would have came and got it for it - he's amazed with the fact that when you get close they fly. It would have showed that football player!!!
