we have a great tit which keeps knocking its beak on two small

Is it tapping the window, the putty around the window or the wall
around the window? I've problems with birds stealing putty and the local
sparrows
are pecking bits out of some rendering below a patio door. Either they are
a very patient crack thieving team trying to get in or there is some sort
of minerals that they get out of this.

Hi Paul,
Its tapping the window and I forgot to mention, flying against it, so
really trying to get in, almost as if it can't believe the glass is
there

How about put some netting, net curtain, semi-transparent paper or something up
at the windows temporarily? It will then see that it's way if blocked and it
might give up :~)
