The Pennsylvania Dutch use the Distelfink on some of their hex signs. It is a stylised rendition of a gold finch (yellow bird) inside of a circle, often accompanied by hearts and flowers. It is a symbol of good fortune and wards off evil.

The canary (another yellow bird) is usually interpreted as a happy symbol. Connected with freedom and intellect. It's old use as a barometer for air quality in the mines still gives it connotations of testing and self-sacrifice. If depicted in a cage it symbolises entrapment, prisoners and sometimes unhappiness. I have also seen a flying yellow bird used to represent sexual ecstasy.

This has no symbolic meaning. Additional information: Not all naturally occurring phenomenons have supernatural or symbolic meaning. Birds, particularly male birds, naturally feel aggressive against strange birds entering their territory. The blue bird probably perceives his own reflection in your window as a stranger, and is trying to reach the other bird. Another possibility is that the bird sees some sort of sparkle or speck in the glass, and mistakes it for a tasty treat.
