Default a little bird told me something

It told me "I flew into your garage and because I have a birdbrain don't know how to get out, so I will fly around and S**T all over the place - ESPECIALLY on that Corvette!"

Opened all the doors and windows and now it's free to crap elsewhere at it's leisure.

Itty-bitty little bird but you would have thought I had a cow flying around in there.........

Wait until they surreptitiously build a nest on a high shelf!!

Well, even Itty-bitty little birds have to practice their bombing skills, and since the mean guy locked them up they found a nice target to show him they were not happy. Nature wins again.

I had a hummingbird in the garage once. Apparently it is quite common because they are attracted to the red release handle that hangs down from the garage door opener.

I've had it a couple times... also had a hummingbird once (sucker was fast). I got a fishing net and that worked both times. The hummingbird actually seemed happy that I helped out and flew around me for a minute zipping around and then took off.

Last year we had two hummingbirds fly in the garage, one flew out another door but the other one decided to go up into a vent on the ceiling

After 6 hours it was time for him to go, ended up on the roof and cut the base of the vent to free him. Its was only logical to up another hummingbird feeder the next day
