SGM 135i - And one casualty..

Just a couple pics of my SGM. Also, I never knew this could actually happen. Seems birds ALWAYS have an uncanny way of swooping down at you and dodging the bumper/windshield/grille/tire at the last minute, but evidently, this poor little guy couldn't flap his little wings as fast as I was driving....

You're doomed for bird poop retaliation from all the cousins. Best of luck.

Wow talk about the luck, landing right in there. Pretty nasty, have fun pulling that out. Amazing you are walking away with no damage on your paint.

Yeah, so it happened on the way to work, and I didn't notice it until I was walking out to my car around 6:30pm that evening. It just happened to be about 92 degrees that day, so if the impact didn't kill the little guy, a long day baking in the sun sure did

Carcass wasn't bad... just got a bunch of feathers everywhere when I pulled him out.

And yes, I am worried about the "poop retaliation" from his cousins, as well as Big Bird coming after me... LOL

Great color choice. No bias. I wonder what the last thing that went through his mind was?
