    Why is bird poop white?
    We have seperate functions for ex......g liquid and solid waste... As a result, our kidneys excrete nitrogenous wastes as urea which ends up getting dissolved in urine...

    On the other hand birds are unable to urinate so their kidneys excrete nitrogenous wastes in the form of uric acid. Uric acid has a low solubility with water, so it comes out as a white paste. Combine that white paste with some intestinal output and you get white bird poop sprinkled with little black bits.

    Ya! Thanks CES. I knew WHY... I just don't believe that they don't have an exception for that. I think there's a list of words to exclude, but also a list of words to include if they would otherwise be excluded.......

    For example:

    assume
    assumption

    could be excluded on the 1st three letters, but aren't.
