xmax vs seagull

Post by tallpaul »

On my way to work this morning doing about fifty, two seagulls came up over a river bank and one smacked straight into me :o , hit my mirror & my shoulder/chest, I couldn't help but laugh about it afterwards :lol:

It's a good job you did not come off... and I'm happy that you are OK
My Dad was knocked out by a pigeon and crashed while racing his BSA many moons ago. :(
Bird Strikes are the biggest cause of damage and accidents for aircraft. :(
When there are miles and miles of fields, woods and forests, why do gulls always poo on my flippin' car? (I live 40 miles from the sea!)

My Dad whilst riding his old vespa back in the 60's hit a male fallow deer crossing his path by jumping out of a bush. He said it was like hitting a brick wall... he was ok and the deer vanished, vespa was a wreck.

Bloody wildlife!
