We've noticed it for weeks now - and I was just reading in the DIG that we aren't the only ones. At least put a white "cover" on the fake island so it's not so obvious? Or get a few people out in those boats to scrub the thing down? OR - get this - Put something neato looking out there?

Of course - having a bunch of bird crap all over everything does fit the California theme somewhat. My car got bombed big time the other day - the size of the bird must have been enormous! ;)

They should add a stone textured shell over the top of the platform and call it "Morro Rock".

We could paint targets on it. Make the spray gun in the kids play area stronger and have kids clean it off.

LOLOL - That would fit very nicely with the California theme. I think we should mount a campaign to turn that spectacular idea into a reality!

Looks like all the rain Sunday night washed off "the Island". Yesterday it looked like an authentic green circus tent in the middle of a large body of water instead of the "white" variety. We'll see how long it lasts. :)

How about this:

Transform the tent-looking-thing into something that looks like a pier.

Are you following me?

Next, you add a few animatronic sea lions.

Still with me?

Stick a Pier 39 sign on it, and you have instant attraction! And it evens fits in with DCA!

Booya!

At least the birds are leaving the guest alone.

The bird that did that was probably of the everyday Disneyland Resort variety. Those birds eat like royalty!
To quote "Mary Poppins": "Feed the birds...nonsense! Feed the birds, what do you get? Fat birds!"
The poor thing probably would've exploded if it's present to you wasn't so big.
