I guess it was bound to happen. Driving home from dinner tonight we got bombed with some some bird crap. I still cant decide if the sunshade made things better or worse. It hit the very front of the shade and treated us to a fine mist of liquidy white awfulness. I'm sure I'll be finding white specks for weeks on the interior.
Someone please tell me I'm not the only one.

I’ve actually been worried about it happening to me and wondered if it had happened to anyone. I can only imagine the mess it made...:puke:

As outlandish as it sounds, apparently birds are more likely to poop on certain colors (red and orange). It's their way of dealing with what they perceive as a threat. You and I are just asking for it with our Punk'ns. :giggle:

Came close a few weeks back. Sitting at an intersection, bird let one drop from the tree above me and hit the top of the windshield frame.

I have not had the dubious honor of being christened by the feces of the avian variety. Or any other variety, come to think of it.

Edit: not in my JL, at least. This thread just made me remember my old TJ and the surprise a bird left on my seat one day!

I haven't had it happen when my Throwback Top was open on my JK. (Yet)

But if anyone has ridden motorcycles long enough you've had your jacket or shirt nailed at least once.

I just started avoiding parking under/near light poles in our work parking lot. But I am sure it will happen at some point.

I've been doing that as well! It never occurred to me that there was actually a chance it would happen while in motion. The odds seemed so slim.

What’s even better is getting behind a cattle trailer and the yellow “water” starts flying out. Had that happen once luckily I wasn’t in the Jeep.

Funny stuff.
My wife bought a new minivan, years ago, and went to the mall. There is a tree there that thousands of Grackles love to occupy, and she thought it would be nice to park there, under the shade. An hour later, she came out, and almost every inch of her minivan was covered in poop. I couldnt help but laugh my butt off, because I've warned her about parking there, in the past.

Oh man, that would be even worse! Or imagine a drunk puking out the window. Ugh. I no longer plan on folding the windshield down, although I would never have done that on the highway I suppose.
