Birdstrike !!!
 
Hey guys I've been running a Mazda 3 saloon (sedan) for approx. 3 months and delighted with it. The only problem is that in that time I've hit 3 birds that have flown in front of the car. Has anybody else had a similar experience - I've not hit a bird before in over 20 years driving. The car is a 1.6 litre petrol (gasoline) engine in icy blue (pale blue). Forgive my translation into American from English if they're not right most of the post on here seem to be from the USA I'm in the UK!

maybe they are confusing the blue for sky? they never see it coming!

Stop driving so fast...you are throwing off the birds cause they aren't used to cars moving at those speeds! j/k That does suck, I've only hit two birds that I know of in my years of driving.

Welcome to the club. All are welcome here no matter what. If it weren't the case there are a few of us who would have been persona non grata long ago!
