Default Light coloured (shiney) cars more likely to be shat on?

My old scoob was red mica and never seemed to get shat on, similarly my dark blue Fiesta didn't seem to suffer.

However my new car is similar to WR1 in colour, and as soon as I wash it (spent 2hrs yesterday) it gets covered in bird poo!

There's a theory that birds will sh*t over water when they can and that light coloured cars are often mistaken for same. Personally I think that's ridiculous.

Maybe a seagull doesn't like you? I read of a case where a deranged seagull would wait outside this bloke's house and then follow him as he cycled to work, dive bombing him and $hitting all over him. It would then wait outside work to give him the same treatment all the way home!
