Bl**dy Crow!

Recommended Posts

I was washing my beloved black Prius when I noticed the wing mirror housing was very scratched. Odd I thought. So I polished the mirror when I'd leathered the car.

Next morning, bird c**p on both front panels near the mirrors and more scratches. Neighbour said he'd seen a large black crow making a lot of fuss round the car.

Seems like the idiot creature has decided my mirrors are a fellow crow!!!!

I saw the thing pecking my sills.

I have had to put Tesco bags over the mirrors when parked on the drive. Thankfully it doesn't seem to think they are crows in a Tesco bag :thumbsup:

If it comes back I'm getting an air pistol! :angry:

But ur lucky, i had 3 cows come down my drive yesterday (they had escaped from a field) and they got stuck between my house and the car and it panicked and dented my rear passenger door! 3 big huge dents! Sorting out the insurance with the farmer soon enuf tho!

strange that... we used to have a tree in the back garden.. and in the winter when all the leaves were off a crow used to sit on the top branch and hang there by its beak for about 20 mins... just off the top twig.. feet dangling in mid air... really stupid bird.. funny to watch though

Not as stupid as the pigeon that flies into our dining room windows every couple of months - pigeon = no brain = no memory of the last time it did the very same thing

There's a big building somewhere in the USA that's glass covered (can't remember what it's called though, or where exactly) and it's estimated 100,000 birds die every year by flying into it.

:rolleyes:

Clearly a weapon of mass destruction. Those sneaky yanks!

Crow Update

I've been away for a couple of nights and it seems the bl**dy crow has decided to take on my neighbours cars now!

I'm going to go to a twitchers site if I can find one and se if anyone has any humane ways of stopping the damn thing. Failing that...time to but an air pistol!!! :ph34r:

I was told I had a cat in my exhaust once but it doesn't seem to have caused me any problems.

Couldn't resist.

You did the "cat in exhaust joke" about a month ago SMW!!! lol

Crows just seem to have this wierd magnetism for freshly washed cars like!! :ffs:

And I think that Fife has the largest population of suicidal birds in Britain too!!! It makes the 5 o'clock drive home in the morning very interesting!!!

Running over birds reminds me of the film:

Big Trouble in Little China, where the guy drives his truck over the chinese guy /thing, and its just pops back up. as whenever I drive over a bird, it just stands there as if nothing happened...its odd
