When I was 16 the family was traveling up to ND to visit my uncle. Well I just got my permit and my dad had me drive so he could nap. Cook'n along the country road about 75mph and all the sudden BAM! Bird bounced off the corner of the hood and up the windshield. All laughed and dad went back to sleep. 5min later BAM! another one off the corner of the windshield and everyone is really laughing now. 5-10min after the 2nd.......you guessed it BAM! another bird off the hood and that's when I decided I wasn't driving down that road anymore.

I swear on everything holly that these birds had some sort of grudge against me! All 16+ years of going up there my parents never hit a single bird andan hourafter I take the wheel I hit 3 in a matter of 30min. My mom took over after I had enough and not a single bird.

yep. i was late for school and my town was basicall a nice little farming town back then, i was on a back road which was seldomly used by other than some trucks and tractors. i was at about 120 when i just see this bird come out of the bushes and smack into the upper left hand corner, when i got to school all i found was some feathers and stuff (guts?) on the roof. about 8 months ago i had a customer come in who had a bird stuck in the windshield. dead of course but fully intact, he wanted us to remove the bird and repair the windshield. just rediculous.
