I'm a very light sleeper, so I have blackout stickers on my bedroom window. (They're vinyl sheets that stick to the inside of the window with water.) I've used these most of my life with no issue. Well, I moved from the city and my new place is in a wooded area. I'm hearing birds and squirrels bonk into the window because they think it's a little cave or something. With the heatwave it's now multiple times a DAY. I opened my window today and there's actually a small pile of dead bodies on the ground. I feel awful.

Is there anything I could do to help these animals understand my window is a black wall and not a cave?

Is the outside facing part of the sheet black? Could you layer something between that and the window?
