Today when I went to lunch, I noticed some small white spots on my dash. As a I don't have a sunroof, I roll down my windows about an inch to keep the car cool.

Yep! You guessed it, a little bit of bird poo made it through that one-inch opening! That is definitely a first!

 

Jeez...that is a first on NAM! I guess you will now need to install a video monitor to catch that kinda "stuff" in action!

This would make one hilarious commercial!

Could have been worse, it could have been a (sharp-shooter) dog!

A bird had purple and blue diarrhea on my mini yesterday. There were five droppings on my drivers side window, and 3 on the body. One of which was a splat as big as my door handle that ran from the top of the door, all the way to the sills. It was absolutely disgusting having to wipe it off. That's when i saw chunks of blue plastic in it. WTH? Sorry, just wanted ya'll to feel my moment.

It sure made me realize how much that mini raises my self esteem driving around, and how much large bird poo splattered every where drops it right back down

 

When I drive with the windows and the sunroof wide open I have to deal with bug splatters on the inside of the back glass. This was a big problem last year during the cicada invasion. Blecch.

I also find splatters on the B-pillars and back seat as well.

 

Eeee-ooooo! Dude, NOT when I'm eating my blueberry muffin!

 

Now that's what I call big splatters! Cicadas?!?!?

All the mommies are having their babies out here. So LOTS of poopie everywhere from them flying back and forth to feed the youngsters...

Mike got it in the side of the face last weekend...ewwww..... Nice day, driving somewhere and SMACK.....out of nowhere.....COMPLETELY grossed me out...LOL!!! Good thing I make him stash napkins in the door pockets of his car...ickkkkkkkkkkkkkkk....... We were both cracking up along side of the road as we stopped so he could wipe the poopie off...

Birds love freshly cleaned leather. They go nuts in my boyfriend's convertible as soon as we step away from the car and leave the top down.

Speaking of splashing bodies... a friend of mine had just washed her car, and was stepping of of it to walk into target. I guess the bird saw ALOT of shine and got excited. He pooed the car, and then her glitter-covered jeans

 

Have you guys seen that commercial where the old guy is feeding the pigeons on the sidewalk, and this yuppie screeches to a halt at the curb in a BMW convertible and lays on his horn as he parks, scaring all the birds away? In the next shot, you see the old guy sprinkling bird seed inside the car, which has its top down, and there's bird poo everywhere! I don't remember what it was a commercial for, but it was great.

 

I got to my MINI the other day after a long day at work and there, right behind the rear-view mirror was a good sized "deposit." Then I went around to the other side and guess what??? Yup a similar deposit...same place. The birds are apparently mistaking my wing mirrors for toilets. I mean......they are the right color.

 

Not to highjack this thread, but speaking of animals that do crazy things to our precious MINIs, there's a neighborhood dog that I caught jumping on my car yesterday and he was licking the xenon lights. I always catch him licking the bumper but this was the first. Fortunately no scratches I could see---this is a big dog--Golden Retriever/Doberman mix. Must have wanted a MINI before he became a dog, or else he's just got fantastic taste!

 

I am really sorry but that is...

 

WHOA... I just finished reading this thread and the source code of the thread pooped up (pun intended) randomly! speaking of random... I know, my mom. sorry about all this, just getting that feeling of personal satisfaction.

 

Similar thing happened to me a while ago -- left my sunroof open to vent position, returned to an odd purpley-yellow splotch on the back seat. Blecch...!

 

When i brought my mini home for the first time, i pulled in my driveway, and parked it in my own parking area in front of the house. My huge german sheppard saw it was me and started running for the car. When i got out, she ran over to me, backed up, and peed right beside my car.

That was the first time she ever peed in that area. Do mini's really look like potty areas?

 

I used to own a '00 convertible Mustang... One day I was all bymyself on the road with the top back enjoying the sun, doing about 60 on the highway.. Then all of the sudden in slow motion I see a good half pound of bird diahrea coming towards my windshield. Counldnt do anything about it, then whammy. Took up half my side of the windshield and got a little on me. Oh however was I pissed

 

Richard, have you been cleaning your black trim with peanut butter?

 

My Ex-Cady had the rain sensor wipers. I was sitting at a light when a really big...really sick bird dropped a huge splat right on the sensor. The wipers spread the goo across the whole windshield. I then hit the squirters, which made me start to gag. When the light turned green, I noticed the guy in the car next to me was laughing his **** off. My windows were down, and the wet poo that was gathering on the windshield side supports started spitting on the side of my face and neck...gawd, I'm gaging as I type!

 

lmao! wow thats some funny sh.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hehehe!
