Urgent: My 60 needs help!!

[MT-PTK]

It keeps getting attacked by an Effin' bird. This bird is nuts. It will land on the side mirror, jump off and attack it's reflection in the window, then land back on the mirror. It repeats it over and over and over. The little douche bag is smearing bird poop all over the freakin window, mirrors, and doors. Short of sitting in a tree with my Remington and waiting for the little turd, I've tried just about everything. I think I'll run down to the local hardware store and get one of those bobble head owls and glue it to the roof. See if that scares the little bastid off.

Any suggestions short of fragmentation grenades or double ought would be appreciated.

Thanks.

MT.

open the window?
no reflection, no threat?

electrify a bracket that it can sit on.

Put some really good double sided tape on top of the mirror.

Maybe

Maybe a little owl sticker? or a GAMO pellet rifle (practice first)

Get a cat and strap him to the door.

park somewhere else.

the little sucker is protecting his turf.

gotta admire that, wouldn't we do the same?

the behavior ought to calm down after mating season

grease the hell out of the mirror, haha

A car cover would do the trick - you would only need it short term until it moved on.

I thought about wrapping duct tape around the mirror with the sticky side out. But I remembered a friend of mine back in Oregon who was having something come around and eat the food for his other pets. He laid out a bunch of duct tape in criss-crossed strips, sticky side up on his porch. Later that evening he heard a ruckess and looked out his window....to find the neighbors cat freaking going ballistic all wrapped up in the duct tape. Lets just say his neighbors weren't very happy with him. I thought I would try this first....so far it appears to be working. Of course there doesn't seem to be any other birds coming around either.

Your owl cut out is hilarious. I hope it works out for you.

That is a fxxxing riot. I lol and showed the wife and she did also.

 

[cruiserpants]

Great idea.
Hopefully it's not mating season for owls!

Update: The Owl pictures worked. The Effin crazy bird has left my 60 alone ever since putting those up....cept now he's attacking my bedroom window.

Put a JEEP in your truck's place

Build a nice garage and let the bird live in it. I mean cruiser.

put a bunch of rice out for him,he eats that and he'll leave the truck alone.thats why you cant throw rice at a wedding anymore.

I knew the owl would do the trick, he's one malevolent looking bastard

Sorry, Mkguyvr, but I have to speak out for the rice farmer on this one:

snopes.com: Rice Bad for Birds

I thought someone with your cunning, knowledge, and skill would know that was a myth.

This thread is hilarious, BTW!
