Guess who won...

I was doing about 110km/h, bird was going a good click right into the side of the car
not even a dent, and this wasn't a sparrow...it was duck sized

Birdie Suicide :(
...about a month ago I was driving through north texas on I20 (east of dallas) early in the morning and drove through what I thought was an air raid, sill not sure what they were but they where big, black and loud when they hit the car and made a terrible mess

Better bird vs bonnie than deer vs bonnie......I hit a dear at 110 km/hr.....dear 1 Bonnie 0! $9500 dollars later I had my bonnie back.....consider yourself lucky dude!!!!
The good bird shots are the head on ones that hit the windshield I've been driving for 13 yrs now and know to look into my rearview mirror and watch them tumble to the road.
My best Bird kill was a turkey I ran over. Dumb *** ran right in front of me. Looked like a damn cartoon behind me. Feathers every where and one crazy flooping soon to be dead turkey. Ended up being a poor hen.
So far I havent hit a bird with my bonnie, but after seeing that pic not worried about it one bit!

I hit a cardnal with my bonne. Didnt really do a whole lot, going down West river drive, and it flew out infront of me. needed a new plastic grill insert peice cause it cracked, but no bit remains. Least your guys were in bonnes and not on bikes. The the bird mightve had the last..chirp?
