My understanding of the bird-wee situation is this:

all birds, both male and female, have a single channel called the cloaca, which serves as a kind of multi-purpose thoroughfare for pooing, weeing and reproduction.
So they do wee, but it gets mixed up with other stuff.

It sounds like fun being a bird.

I must be due a big win, last time a seagul tulip on my car it looked like someone had thrown a bucket of whitewash at it. I could not believe how much there was. Windscreen wipers couldn't cope for at least 5 strokes.

Where I live, birds don't drop it, they lurk behind corners waiting to throw it. Little feathery ba$tards!

Last time that happened to me a seagull got me right in the crutch. I decided walking around with bird poo on was less embarassing than cleaning it off and having a big wet patch.

Good shot. A friend of mine took a round in the mouth once. He didn't strike me as feeling very lucky at the time, but since I was crying with laughter I may have missed it. However, he won a tenner on the lottery that week, "so who's laughing now?" he said.

Last time that happened? How many times has there been? You're obviously due a big lotto win...

Do birds wee?

They only ever seem to sh*t on you - I've never heard of anyone ever getting p*ssed on (well, not off birds anyway!)

Actually bird poo (as we refer to it) is bird urine. That white stuff is their urine. Like snakes they are exothermic so conserve as much water as possible by excreting a white pasty substance as waste.

.........According to a New Scientist Book (why do penguins not get cold feet) anyway.

"Chocolate Hostage" lol first time I heard that one.

Anyway shouldn't bird crap be more likened to "white trash" ?

Not always. On this occasion only some of it was Tippex, I'd say the bird in question had been enjoying some seasonal roughage, or Guinness.
