Just started American Skeet - where should I be looking for the target at station 4?

Hey all, new shooter here. I'm working through American Skeet and station 4 is giving me fits. I'm shooting a Beretta A300 Outlander with a Skeet choke, using Federal Top Gun 2.75" shells with 1 1/8 oz of #9 shot. I keep missing the high house bird - should I be looking at the house window, above it, or somewhere else entirely?

Welcome to the sport! Station 4 high house is tricky for everyone at first. Don't stare at the window - instead, focus your eyes about 3 feet above the opening where the target will appear. That gives your brain time to process the target's flight path. With your A300 and Skeet choke, you've got a great setup for those close crossing shots. What's your gun mount timing like - are you mounting as you call for the bird?
