Bird Strike!

[hikoushounen]

Happened tonight while cruising at 3500 ft. Saw a brief blur in the light of the tail strobe moving rapidly left to right and felt a dull thud. Initially I thought we were unscathed until one of the passengers shined a light out the window . . .

Here's hoping the insurance claim is easy and that this doesn't result in too much down time. It's frustrating, but at least no one was hurt. Damage also could have been worse.
