Crazy Bird....
ok guys and gals, i have a slight problem. it seems there
is a bird in my neighborhood that is a few beers short of a 6 pack. the last few times i've washed the X, i noticed a day or so later that the right front passenger door has dirt and all all over it. i figured that maybe i was using too much tire dressing; so, i stopped using as much. this past sunday, i'm getting dressed and i here this thumping sound. i look out of my window and see this bird staring at my door. he then proceeds to jump/fly into the door. after collecting himself, he hops back up on the curb only to do it again and again and again. after bashing himself into the side of my X, i believe that he then proceeds to take a crap on it.:mad: so, last night, i decide to give the X a quick bath. all seems fine w/ the door. unfortunately, i didn't look close enough. turns out, i have a bunch of scratches from this stupid ass bird.:mad: any suggestions on how to remedy this issue?:dunno: |
I hope i'm not gonna come off as a smart &*^% But how about the Garage?

what garage? i never said anything about
having a garage. |
Are the scratches deep?
|
kill the bird
|
the scratches aren't deep and i'm sure they'll buff out,
but the bird is sure to come back. i thought of getting a pellet gun, but i was hoping to do something a little more humane. |
It's a punqueazz young male: many species do the posturing thing...
they see their reflection and bump and peck and crap at it. Other than parking it somewhere else or using a car cover to "disguise" the reflection, or offing the bird, I dunno. The scratch Xperts here should be able to help, though I think a lil'clay bar and a layer or 2 of Zaino will do it. My scoots, parked in the garage, get beat on all the time: Juncos wander in and peck away at the shiny parts. I was gonna use the Mossberg, but I feed the bastards at the feeders and I figured the triple ought buck would take out my sleds, too. ;>) GL, mD |
Sorry to hear about the scratches mate but thanks for giving me a good laugh this morning:bustingup Maybe the bird think its seeing another bird, must be a pretty good wax job you have on the X.:)

Use some scratch remover polisher and then paint a big eagle on the door.;)

Introduce him to Accella's neighbors cat! Kill two birds with one stone.
:takecover |
I'm going with kill the bird flu ridden bird, I HATE birds, for the bird crap, I had both the cars filmed or whatever you call it so if a bird does crap on her, the acid won't harm the paint, as for the scratches, do you own a gun :)

KILL IT! Even if you don't own a gun, Cecil County is only a few miles away...EVERYONE owns a huntin' rifle in Cecil County!
|
Capture it, put it into a cage and take a major dump on it and then release it, I am sure it will never come to your neighborhood again!
