I love the times your driving the car home from work thinking its all pristine and all the while there's bird shit all over your trunk and bumper for all to see on your commute.

I panicked, sure he was about to take a big wet nasty duece on my clean and shiney ride. I said, "Hey weirdo what the heck?!" He gave me a look of indifference and hopped down onto the ground ever-so nonchalantly.

Good news is he didn't crap on my car, and didn't leave any scratches. I really do enjoy watching birds, and this part of Florida has TONS, but that's another topic entirely.

The other day there was a peacock in my driveway. My neighbor said apparently it hangs out there (our street) often during the day when everyone's at work.... I live in a pretty urban area. don't know why the hell there's a peacock here.

Real weird. It looks at its reflection in cars and hangs out.

Back in my old apartment there was a massive tree where all the birds would hang out and riddle my shiny black car with poop.

I went to the dollar store and bought 2 snakes after reading that it sometimes scares off the birds.

I placed one on my windshield and by the tree to see what that would do.

My neighbors probably thought I was some retard with these toys, and the one by the tree disappeared in like a week lol.

I honestly think it scared them off. I didn't hear birds chirp in the mornings anymore and I didn't see birds around the area.

P.S. I'm not joking:

Look around, I bet there's a certain tree they all roost on, and your car is parked in their landing/takeoff/poop zone.

Try parking somewhere different.

Found this really funny but yeah... he has a point... if you can, look somewhere else. Birds will always give shit but they won't give a shit. ;)

That's funny. Could've used that technique at my last apartment, damn birds woke me up every morning.

have you ever tried to hit one with your car. I tried to run over a crow with my old pick up truck and they would shit on it all the time after that.

they also knew never to stay on the road when they saw me coming either.

Set a plate of scrambled eggs where the birds can see them. Show them this shiz is serious.

The Hills will not be alive with your trusty UZI bird eliminator...

Alrighty, so ill be that engineer that says hook a battery up to everything! Automatic fried seagull and pigeon. Might need some seasoning though.

But seriously, practice your skeet shooting.
