No, but I think you should set a trap. Have a net over the car, watch for the bird to move in, and drop the net.

Trap that son of a bitch, drive out as far as you can and let it go so it doesn't come back to your car. Better yet, box it up and FedEx it to South America or something.

How about putting a very large photo of a cat in both windows, or put a stuffed kitty by both mirrors. I can't resist this one , but in the words of Mrs Slocum (Are you being Served) your pussy can protect your car.....

shoot rubber bands at the bird instead of BB. that way you won't break your windows and still deliver a good blow

Airsoft guns are highly effective! Wont break your window, but it will get the job done! I was in LA last week and I shot a parrot that kept waking me up at 7am... he lived, but never came back!

air soft is a good idea. or just turn in your mirrors intill he finds a better car to peck at.

Put some rubber snakes on the mirrors and on the hood and roof. That should keep the birds away.

what an insane bird. not enough branches around there so it has to sit and shit on side-view mirrors? i'm for the violent approach. why should you have to remember to turn the mirrors in every day?

the bird is sitting on his window seal and pecking at the window that is why he keeps coming back. so if you turn in the mirrors he cant see the window and no reason for him to come back. we will hopefully find a new car to shit on.

I say the glue approach is a great ides, then pull it's wings off and watch it slowly and painfully die. JK. try some wolf piss on your mirror. I bet that will keep it away.

set up some sort of tazer to sit on the side of your car so when he lands its the only thing to land on and then you will have roast bird in the morning.

You could go to any boat store (West Marine in Minnesota works) and get what they call a "scare eye". It's a giant eye that you can hang and it blows in the breeze and scares off birds. Hang that somewhere by your car or even on the mirror.
