Was it a sign or just a dumb bird?

    My in-laws hit a turkey buzzard a few months ago. It hit near the top of their windshield. Broke the windshield (of course) and tore into the roof of their Honda Odyssey.

    Had a golf ball incident a few years ago, and it left a nice dimple in the hood. This was in a convertible; if I'd have been a couple feet farther down the road the ball would have hit me instead.

    A woman driving near our house hit a big deer recently. That sucker flew in the air and crashed through the front windshield. Had a huge rack. (The deer, not the woman).

    Hit an owl once. Had to go back with a .22.

    Hit a cow once. No .22.

    Can't hear stuff like this w/o thinking of when I first moved to the beach.
    I was in a Chic-fil-A drivethru, and as I'm pulling closer and closer to the window, I start to see a pile of white next to a pile of brown.
    It doesn't take long to pick up on the brown -- a huge pile of nuggets someone had dropped while paying for their food.
    The white was a little harder to decipher. Turns out, a sea gull had swooped in for the chicken nuggety goodness and didn't have the sense to move out of the way as another car pulled up to the window. Damn thing never had a chance.

    I swerved off the road one time to avoid hitting a dead deer in the road. Spun out, ended up facing the wrong way with a semi-truck coming at me. Floored it in reverse, did a 180 and didn't get creamed. Literally, two miles down the road, two more deer run out of the woods narrowly miss my car in the left lane, but manage to both get hit by the same semi, who was a bit behind in the right lane.

    Deer No.1 got destroyed by the front of the truck, while deer no. 2 galloped into the side of the truck.

    I don't think I will ever see two deer get hit by the same vehicle simultaneously again.

    A seagull shat on my head once at the beach. That's all I got.

    No, it was bad. Just my only bird story.

    Clearly you have forgotten that time BYH tried to cornhole an ostrich.
