Default Thanks Pontiac for the bird bath option that i never ordered :mad:

just figured out how the trunklid/wing on my convertible keeps getting these nasty *** scratches. i NEVER place anything on the paint....not even a grocery bag full of Wonderbread.

so it rained recently and the damn wing has a little recessed grove in it that would hold water.....in the morning a saw a freaking bird standing on my spoiler...taking drink. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...these birds are gonna pay bigtime...ohhh it's on now.

Leave an Alka Seltzer for them on a towel. When they eat it...BOOM!

Of course, then there's THAT mess to clean up....

That's why people stopped throwing it at weddings. The birds were eating it and it would expand in the birds before they could , then....

actually i did have to deal with cats i've got this c02 BB gun with a scope that's very accurate. the crows used to wake me up at 4am every morning until i started shooting them. now when i come out, they see me and give out a loud distress signal to their friends and all fly away.....kinda funny...i now have to sneak out and squeeze one off before they see me....even if i take too long to aim, they freaking fly away.

cats, omg, when they mate at night....sounds like a woman screaming for help.

You guys are hilarious! I dont have quite the same problem but in the way of birds....i live in a heavily wooded area and park somewhat under trees, always by morning there would be some sort of bird dropping all over the nice fresh waxed car. I simply started covering the car every night. I think our cars deserve that. But on the other hand, i too have a Crossman air rifle w/ an incredible scope on it....used to pick off squirels at the bird feeder in the winter...its deffinatly cleaner than the alka seltzer idea LOL.

Also shows the alka seltzer thing is wrong too...

best bet is a good aim, well calibrated pellet gun... flat top pellets ... should stay inside the bird (you just better be a steady aim and the gun dialed in.. )
