Hi,
Those pics were circulating a couple years ago. It's a Pheasant from the looks of it.
I had a bird hit my car once many years ago. I was driving a '68 Lincoln Continental, cruising about 80MPH on an Interstate in Northern MN on a beautiful sunny, summer day. Radio blaring, windows down.
All of a sudden, I'm wet - I mean really drenched. All over my face, I look down and my T-shirt is all red. I pull over expecting that some kids were throwing tomatoes or something.
When I get out, I see that a bird had flown into the Driver side mirror and literally exploded. That happens when a 10 oz. Bird hits 3.5 tons (7200 lb. Curb Weight) of Detroit Iron! Feathers, Blood everywhere and got sucked right into the interior and me...Yucky!
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
