Heh heh. Funny you posted this.
Seems every time I clean up my car every flock of geese flies over my house, sending a shock of panic into me. I almost want to throw myself over my car to save it, lol.

Lmao.....
Scott, we get them to, in droves. There Ravens, at least here in Ca. And they do their fly-by`s, by the thousands. Practically every night you`ll see them coming from afar, and you jus keep your fingers crossed you dont cross paths......

I`m betting those are Great Tailed Grackles. Wild birds, loud, like to gather by the thousands in trees at night and party til dawn. We`ve got plenty of them in OK so no doubt more are headed your way, Scott. :lol

Just tell the cops they were carrying some of your property. You can use deadly force to prevent property theft in Texas. :2thumbs:

That would require too much effort - I`ll take a Phalanx please! - 3,000 rounds a minute should do the trick! :D

Nothing like the sound of a Phalanx first thing in the morning to rattle you out of your rack! That would definitely do the trick!
Happy Veteran`s Day!

Well don`t feel left out; I have my share of flock-by`s as well. Like I always say, "Half sqeegie bottles will travel".

Over here we get Flying Foxs - large fruit bats that flock at night. They drop a bomb you wouldn`t believe
