Default Ok...this isn't funny anymore...

just went out to go to lunch (leftover Zachary's)...and there were 3 more huge ****s on the car (bird, not human)...with lots of little satellite bombs! Unfreakin'believeable!!! I looked around at a nearby Chevy Avalanche...nothing!!! I think it really is a target!!! I'm gonna hafta get a cover for this if this keeps up...there are NO trees around...wide open parking lot!!! (there are flocks of birds that hang around on base, but not right there)

This is unreal!!!

Default It's part of the breakin process according to Murphy....

My Silver S4 has been crapped on more in the last six months than all my other cars combined in my lifetime. I wax every few months just for the *#@!*# birds.
I am going to the dealer later today to find out where my S6 is! hopefully I will have it before you make your trek up to Seattle later this summer.
It's my turn to take your "woe is me, where is my S6?" gauntlet and run with it.

Default Alfred Hitchcock lives!!!!!! The Birds 2002! They don't peck, they crap you to death!! ;)

But I know what you mean...I park close to the water here in Seattle and I get seagull crap on my allroad at least 3 days a week. And it seems they know how to "bomb" the nooks and crannies around the doors and windows (they must have squirrels with laser pointers in the nearby trees doing their "target selection" ) I shopped for covered parking but they're too damn far from my office.

Bird S**t is hard to see on the Chevy Avalanche because the whole thing is a giant piece of it.

You need decoy targets, like donuts (I'm still waiting).

Default They're jealous.... Get yourself a cover or covered parking. Here we get a lot of insect crap, small

but annoying. (I'm not talking about moskitos committing suicide on the bumper/grille/windshield)

Default It sounds like you are going out to check on your new baby about once an hour.

My father's theory was a bird going over a shiny car was startled and would let fly due to muscle twitch. Observing my parrot, I think there might be something to that, except I think it would get the next car over.
