My car mirrors are not bird perches

I went outside the other day to get into my car and poop was all over the mirror and side of my car. Disgusting. I got the hose and cleaned it off and dried it and thought, I better not park over there anymore.

Much to my surprize, I realized later the other mirror and side of the car was also covered with bird poop. Then my husband mentioned he needed to get the hose and clean off his mirror and side of his car. Okay, that’s weird.

So, now I am tying a plastic grocery bag over the mirrors whenever I have the car parked at the house. I tried just parking in a different place–about 40 ft away but that didn’t do the job.

My neighbor said she saw the bird perched on my mirror and attacking my windows. She said it fluttered at the side of the window and kept slamming into it for about an hour. She also said it has been slamming into her French doors and pooping all over her Hot Tub.

I think I have figured out which bird is making mischief in my life. It is a Mockingbird that sits on the lines and nearby poles. I don’t know how long birds live but I am thinking that this bird’s life may be cut short.
