Wish I had a picture of my wife's car after she was parked under a tree
near the local Topsy's Popcorn shop.  Blue, red, green, yellow... VERY
colorful!  

I have the same problem with my tower.  This morning when I went out,
there were at least 100 birds perched on the 6 meter and tri-band yagis,
which overhangs our deck.

Most of the time whacking the tower with a hammer scares the uh, crap
out of 
them and they take off.  Sometimes they return, sometimes they don't.
Repeat 
as needed.

I have also heard putting a plastic owl facing true north works (sorry
gang, 
couldn't resist)!
