A bird pooed on my friend's head. He got a tissue out of his pocket but I said "Don't be silly, it will be miles away by now."

My wife used to have to park under a cherry tree. One day she came home without being able to see through the rear windscreen. It was all a bright purple and red pooy mess. Wasn't very nice to clean off, I'll tell you that much!

It's a proven fact that birds 'target' certain cars, or cars parked in a particular spot. The growth in feral pigeon numbers over recent years means we're now all vulnerable to a dolloping. It's getting out of proportion around here and they're displacing the smaller birds that used to sing in the garden. These were considerably less messy, but don't come any more. I have a catapult.

Its seagulls here, washing both cars one day, did the 160 first then the 260. By the time I'd finished the 260 presumably a seagull had dumped its load diagonally across the 160 starting on the boot lid, up the rear screen, over the roof, down the windscreen and over the bonnet. I was not a happy bunny

I feed the birds with a mixed seed. In their gratitude they **** on my MG. I don't mind as it's only my work horse, but they ******* on the off side rear door handle, which is too much Dirty little boogers.

Remember a few years ago, my father's car had a load of poo on it but it was only down the front doors This went on for a while til we spotted the culprit, a barmy Wagtail going absolutely ape at its reflection in the door mirrors!
