Good luck hehe
There is some stuff called Sticky Feet, I think. It comes in a tube like caulk.

You could put some duct or masking tape on the top of your mirror and put the stuff on the tape. It is very, very sticky.

Thumbs down Not so much the mirrors as it is an angry bird

So it's not so much the mirrors after all. It's an angry robin that chest-bumps his reflection all morning long... whilst crapping what seems to be 2x his body weight every day down my doors and mirrors.

I tried a window paint marker so he'd see what essentially looks like synthetic bird scat on the windows instead of his reflection. No dice. Angry bird wins again.
