With all the bad parking threads lately, the owner trained a bunch of birds to watch his Vette and prevent anyone from parking next to it.

Reminds me of a day in February 2009. I was out to dinner and came out to find my black Vette literally covered with hundreds of bird S***Ts. I had parked under a tree and apparently it was full of birds. As I approached the car I thought someone had thrown paint on the car. That's how bad it was. I drove away practically crying when about a half mile down the road I decided I need to address the problem immediately. It was about 20 degrees out so my spray cleaner kept freezing. I had no gloves so my hands were frozen to the point of pain. Never even thought to take a photo with my phone. The next day was one of the few times I took the car through a car wash....
