slightly different but was out last night, had a run up to thirsk and back, my mate on his gixer had to swerve to avoid hitting a Fxxxxxxg great big crow, would have been nasty if he had hit the thing, it seemed to be a kamikaze crow, maybe they have closed the bird branch of the samaritans ? ps me and mate going to squires on wednesday night (from tingley but dont know time yet)

Had a bird clip my knee last year while I was borrowing a DL650 V-Strom.
I was find, however the bird caught the outside of my knee, and must've hit the pannier as when I got off later is was cover in the white 'cack' with a few feathers scattered on it for good luck! lol/

I'm just imagining a bird flying right alongside and the punching it in the beak... great!

So far i've had a duck stand in the middle of the lane, being a duck.

I've not had anything hit me since the deer a couple of years back, touch wood. That was bloody messy (in a literal as well as figurative sense) and resulted in the only 'proper' tank slapper I've had.
