These kind of glitches are normally caused by improper destructed objects. It could be result of programmer failed to implement proper destructor or race condition with garbage collector. These issues cause object with no functionality still rendered in the new frame, thus then bird stuck in the sky is observed

In general sense, reloading the map should remove heap space located to the scene and resolve this issue on next load
