Bird Crapped In My Motor

This is no joke, while changing the oil today a bird flew under my hood while I was there and dropped a load mid flight. I noticed some white stuff by my oil cap and I looked down the hole and damned if the better part of it was down there. Can't wait to get my oil analysis back from this batch.

It could have been worse. It could have been on your head.

I had a seagull try that once. I was standing at the boat ramp holding onto the front of a boat waiting for the trailer to be brought down. there was a gull on a piling near by I'm staring at the bird who is staring back at me. the bird turned his back, took off and flew over my head dropping his load as he went. I stepped back just in time to have it all land just in front of me. I'll be darned if the rotten swine didn't land back on the same piling he just took off from.....

I have a couple bird feeders behind my house about 20 feet from where I park my trucks and wifes car. The Ford psd gets almost all the bird droppings and the Dodge CTD rarely gets any. I don't understand that one Maybe the birds are trying to tell me something.

It'll be a little high in "organic solids."

Thumbs up Organic matter and dino don't mix

I had the same problem with the birds pooping on my truck. I finally cured the problem when I installed this security system, it works great.

Sorry about that Muddin! I guess you can look at it as good luck? Next time you'll have to change oil while a buddy stood guard with a shot gun!

I've got a friend at work that went hunting one day. He was driving down a gravel road, when he saw a buzzard flying low and straight toward him. The buzzard puked on his hood and it took the paint off!

Heh.. Think buzzard puke is bad? Try center punching one at 60 mph on a motorcycle. Believe me, they taste as bad as they look!

I swear to god that I once had a dove LAND ON MY SHOULDER in front of my house... It LANDED ON MY SHOULDER.


I had enough time to jump and say "ASDFGY" before it crapped all over me...
