    Hmmm. To spread a pukeko out that much you prolly weren't doing 50kph....I hit a small bird at about 140 once...at that speed I had time to see it out of the corner of my eye and flinched so it hit the side of the lid not the front. Made my ears ring a bit.

    Must have been a track day?

    Great quick thinking, getting the 'at the scene, in the moment' shots for insurance purposes, and ACC etc
    Did the Pukeko know it was a protected species? Fancy going getting itself killed like that, whens the funeral

    Perfection is not something you should ever attain, but something to always strive for. For if we actually achieve our idea of perfection, is it then any longer perfect?

    Glad to hear you kept it upright and got some attention to that impromptu impact with a manic-depressive bird on a suicidal bender!

    Blardy suicidal birds!
    Lucky you avoided the cow, though, imagine the mess that would have made.

    If my nose was running money, I'd blow it all on you...

    Now that is a bloody good photo!
    Well done that man for taking out another hazard for the rest of us.
    I am impressed you had the presence of mind to control everything after the impact, well done mate. Hope your nose heals up fast.
