I parked my car INSIDE the parking structure at work last week and I still

got bird droppings on the car.  Ironically, I never got bird droppings on

the car from parking outside.  Fortunately, it hit the window and not the

interior.  From now on, I check above me before I park in the strucutre.  

Hint, look for feathers or bird droppings on lights above you in the parking

structure.
