Well I was driving home from work the other day and noticed ahead in the road was this little bird. No biggie as they normally fly away well before you reach them. Well as I approached at about 65 mph it appeared he wasn't in too big of a hurry to move. I came right up to him and last I saw he was still in the road. I never heard a noise so I assumed he got away in time.
Well I had to stop at the ATM on the way home and after getting money out decided to see if I had a bird plastered to the front. Sure enough I got out and there was this little blue bird with wings spread in a diagonal position indented into my lower plastic grille. I peeled him off and inspected the goat for damage but don't believe it did anything to the goat. The bird on the other hand, well, RIP.

I once hit a bird on my bike doing WELL over the posted speed limit!!
Bird was flat when I pulled it out of my radiator. Felt like I had been hit with a brick. Not sure how the bird felt about it all."He didn't want to tell the cop he was on his way to the Butt Pirate Palace for a little two-step with Joe-Joe during the Village People marathon." - Cat_Doc

A friend hit a bird on his bike. The bird hit him in the chest at about 70mph. The beak went thru his jacket and cut him. :eek: Originally Posted by Aussie George

It is my understanding that going 65 in a 55 actually "is" exceeding the posted speed limit ;).........................
