I'll try and post a picture to better explain.
Thanks

If you've got plants in front of the mirror, you wouldn't get the bird strike problem. I would have expected you to get algae growing on the mirror, and mud splashes on it, so you'd want to wipe it down now and again - so leave a 6 inch space behind the plants to get to the mirror. But I've not done this myself so there may be other problems I haven't thought of.
