I used to work at a Ford dealership in Tampa, Florida when I was 17. One day we had two Sandhill cranes (verrrryyy protected, can't mess with them at all) walking around the new car lot. One of them put his head in between the cab and the bed and stayed there for five hours. No joke, 5 hours. The other one pecked at his reflection on a new Ford Fusion for 10 minutes or so. Probably the funniest thing I ever saw working at a dealership.
They already got one member's car:

Wait until the first 2015 lands in New Zealand! They have 'parrots' in the mountains that will strip every piece of rubber off your car in just a few minutes. I thought it was just a 'tale' until I visited the South Island and they tried to attack my rental car as soon as I parked. I couldn't leave the car by itself. I ended up driving a few miles away before parking.

Why do you have to be a Camaro fan, Jon Snow!
LOL! "I would not be caught dead breaking bread with no Crows!"

"you know nothing, Barrel Snow!"

Apparently, there was a classic/exotic car show of some description a few years ago on the grounds of a stately home type place. The peacocks pecked at their reflections and casued damage running to millions.

I think if I had a problem with cranes, birds or cats, I would invest in a car cover first. Then kill them all...

I've driven cars at pretty damn fast amounts of speed, I've crewed in Blackhawks while taking small arms fire at 50 feet, I lived in nasty nasty neighborhoods growing up, and I can honestly say that not a thing in this world scares me more than a damn parrot/cockatoo in attack mode. My grandma has one that took a key ring, just the regular part that holds your keys, and I swear to god straightened it out with his beak and claws. A 1 pound bird. That's insane.

When the crow was messing with my F150 I tried to pounce on one when I caught it next to the truck on the ground. My wife was like, "What are you going to do if you get your hands on it?" And I replied "I'm going to rip it's F***ing head off!" She knew I was serious! LOL

Had a girlfriend right out of high school who's mom had an African Grey. The bird was cool at first with me, but would sit on the ceiling fan blades (obviously they weren't on) and when I'd walk in it would dive bomb me and start thrashing my scalp. I had the last laugh when one day it flew out the door in the dead of winter when they were bringing groceries in and nobody noticed right away. Then my girlfriends crazy mom divorced her dad for letting her "baby" out.
