Animals: Today, a bird got into the walls of my house through a hole....

Today, a bird got into the walls of my house through a hole. I located where it was by following the chirping and scratching sounds, and drilled a hole to get it out. I pulled out the drill, only to find the drill bit bloody. Suddenly, no more chirps. FML

Today, the bird that has been stuck in my roof for two days, keeping me awake at night, finally flew out of the roof and into the house. As I was opening the door to send it outside, it flew straight back up into the roof. FML

Today, there’s been birds nesting in my wall since mid winter. They’ve recently started scratching at the wall as if they wanted to get through. This morning, they made their entrance. FML

Today, after a full year of work getting my house decorated, it was finally finished. I stepped back from the last painted wall to admire it and my neighbour on the other side of the wall, who was doing some decorating of his own, drilled too far and punched his drill bit right through the wall.

Today, I was caring for a bird that had flown into my window. I thought the poor thing wouldn't make it, when it shit in my hand, flew into my neck, then around my living room for ages before I could manage to get it out of the window. FML

Today, I came home to find that my sweet kitten had gotten out and dragged a bird inside, where he ripped it to shreds. I found the bird's head in my underwear drawer. FML

Today, a hummingbird somehow got into my house. I spent two and a half hours trying to get it out after finally using a blanket to catch it. I run outside to release it from my hands, and it flew back into my house. FML

Today, a wild squirrel managed to get into my house. I can't see him… but I can hear him in the walls. FML

Today, I was taking a poop when I heard a window in my house break. Then, I heard things dropping upstairs. I decided to stay in the bathroom, which has a lock, and called the cops. Turns out it was just a bird that was trying to get at my fish in the fish tank that I have in my room. FML

Today, I tried to help a bird who had broken his wing. I walked straight into a door while looking down at him in my hands, and ended up all but breaking his other wing. FML

Today, a bird flew into the workshop where I work, gave itself a tour of the place, then promptly pooped on my lunch and left. FML

It probably would've died soon if it was stuck in your walls anyway.

No one deserves that. At least you were trying to help the poor bird. I had a family of raccoons living in my walls and it took a month to convince my mother to believe me. Finally got someone to come in and get them out and two of the babies had died.

Why did you drill the hole in the exact spot you heard the chirping and scratching...? Well at least you tried to help.

Op could have drilled in the surrounding area and the bird moved.

I accidentally clicked the you deserved it option, sorry for that, I don't think I can undo it. Good effort trying to get the bird out, try not to beat yourself up for it. If it happens again, put the hole a distance away from the bird and shine a flashlight, it might notice the hole and go through it to get out. You didn't mean to kill the bird, just remember that you tried your best. Don't regret trying to help, regardless of how sad the ending became. It would have died in the wall, you tried to save it, and that's noble of you.
