Two crows described as "Evil" have been vandalising a Newark woman's car and pecking at the windows of her home for three years.
Brenda Brown said the same two birds wreak havoc at her home almost everyday and are costing her a small fortune in replacement windscreen wipers as they have taken a particular liking to her Range Rover.
She said they have ripped off her windscreen wipers four times and peck away at the rubber seals around the windows, also attacking the wing mirrors.
"Next door had the same colour car but they never touched that and they never banged on their windows," she said. "I don't know what they've got against me."
They also wake her up pecking at her windows as early as 04:00.
"It does disturb me - it is really, really loud," she said.
Bird trainer Lloyd Buck said this was an "extreme case" but not unusual and "nothing sinister". He said the crows may be reacting to their reflections in the car's windows and mirrors and thing that there is another crow in their territory," he said. "When something doesn't go away that they don't like, they peck the ground or anything nearby in anger."
Ms Brown said she has covered the mirrors and windows to no avail, but now she has a love-hate relationship with the pair.
"It upsets me if there's one day they miss coming, I wonder where they are," she said.
