NOW THIS IS JUST STRANGE

Was out cleaning my windows just a little while ago and when I was done I remembered that I had a bunch of antennas that came from the junkyard. When I went to screw off the stock antenna, this is what I found:

Has someone switched my antenna or has a bird been pecking on it or is this normal? Never noticed it before.

Prolly birds landing on it and/or cats chewing on it at night. I'm assuming though that you park outdoors over night?

No foot prints or bird poo anywhere in sight. Not many cats in my neighborhood. Looks like tiny punctures.......

Rats are pretty good at climbing, although usually they'll stick to warm areas like the engine bay. If you have rats you'll almost certainly see rat droppings on top of the engine. If that's the case, put poison around your car before they chew into your wiring or insulation.
