What can happen if you let a bird in your car.......

I was at Cadwell Park at the weekend and saw some blokes tinkering at the front of an SLine B7
I went over to have a look, and duly gave them some advice on how to dismantle the front end to extract the cause.

This is what had happened:

This is the 'bird' that caused it:

Wow, that made a mess.
At least it was complete.

How was everything else at the front end?

Untouched!

Lucky man.

I hit a bird in a vectra once.
Apart from the blood and feathers everywhere. It took out the the front grill,fans, Rad and some bits.
Lucky it was a company car.

Ouch! Very lucky is was only the grill and not bumper or as mentioned above the radiator!

Nobody else feel sorry for the bird?

I need to man up!
