Birds With Bowel Problems

[giveup]

On my conservatory roof.

[boxtops]

Know the feeling, the baby seagull who pood its fishy breakfast all over my car wasn't very welcome, either.

[rockyracoon]

Well, sodding Crusty the Crow that lives on my roof splattered his doings all over my open window and it splashed up the bedroom wall inside. I will kill that bird!

[MichaelZZ]

Why not let her come into the house?

[aelmpvw]

i'm convinced that they wait until the windows have been cleaned

[giveup]

I wouldn't mind,but I feed them.Talk about messing (or words to that effect) in your own nest.

[boxtops]

It wasn't as unwelcome as the seagull who crapped from a great height into my hair while I was standing at the bus stop the other morning :-(

[giveup]

Boxtops,thats supposed to be lucky. Buy a lottery ticket.

[rockyracoon]

Boxy lol, sorry!

[boxtops]

It was bad timing - it bounced off my hair, all down the lining of my jacket, onto my clothes. I needed to get to work, I couldn't go home to change... :0(

[ruthandsam]

Oh dear boxtops ;-)

We have loads of house martins on the estate doing their business on the washing, cars, bins, people. So much so, home owners are having the nests removed from the eaves/facia boards of the roof. I didn't know that was allowed.

Quite funny to see the nests being removed only to see the house martins start rebuilding them in exactly the same place!

[gingejbee]

The birds don't have bowel problems - that's the way they're made!
And...they're not seagulls..they're "gulls"!!

[boxtops]

I didn't know it was allowed either - we always had housemartins in the eaves outside our bedroom windows when we were little, we felt it was a privilege.

Feed it some calcium carbide in bread and stand back..........

[boxtops]

No, that's horrid, DT. They may be flying rats, but I couldn't do that.

[DTCwordfan]

House Marten are fine - its effing seagulls, the bane of most Cornish people's lives.....

[EcclesCake]

I have self cleaning glass on my conservatory, just need a shower of rain.......

My car on the other hand is smothered in bee poo, I'm not happy.

[boxtops]

Cornwall? you should come here, DT. They steal your sandwiches, ravage your binbags, frighten small children....

[DTCwordfan]

Boxy - do you guys have to cover your roof-lines, gutters, chimney as and all the rest with spikes to keep them off, fine razor spikes as the old form they just perch on.

Just for the record, my comment is tongue in cheek, though I did know of one sixteen year old who did that in St Ives, surprising the unsuspecting tourists on Smeaton's Pier with incoming suicide Stukas.

[DTCwordfan]

Bee poo I have never experienced...........

What do wasps produce?

You should think yourself lucky you don't have peacocks pooping all over your car/garden/paths.

Massive poops...
