What's flying near you?

I've had to put tights on my wing mirrors - doesn't everybody?
The sparrows have been attacking the mirrors and pooing all over the doors, while they wait for their turn to chase off their "rival" who looks surprisingly like them!!
First time I saw them a couple of days ago I was fascinated - today, having to scrub off their mess, I am not quite so enchanted.

My socks weren't big enough to go over the wing mirrors so I had to rummage around for a pair of tights (pop-socks actually)!! Hope it works but I must remember to remove them before I drive anywhere - I can imagine the comments.

MiL had the same problem with some small bird (can't remember which), she had to cover her wing mirrors.  She also had pheasants (by the dozen) admiring themselves in the lower window panes and posturing against their reflections.  There were dozens of pheasants because she fed the local pheasants that had been bred for shooting.  I often wonder whether they managed to avoid the guns.
