fly into my windshield and shatter it while I was driving at highway speed. It was quite a shock. Lucky it wasn't raining. I had a windy ride home that day, though!

...and felineous assault, to boot...

Oh, the felinity!

The driver checked, he said he would have saved it if he could.

Did they do a scan?

If not, look at the hole in the windshield.

Cat Scan.

I think I would have.

I assume the cat was out hunting and became the hunted one. I don’t think it worked out well for the
cat.

saw that a struggling young eagle was on a collision course with my car. Traffic was light enough that I could stop. The eagle was carrying the biggest red hen I've ever seen.

The chicken was dragged across my hood and the eagle's left wing-tip brushed my windshield. No traffic was to my left, and the eagle fortunately gained altitude.

As perfect as they are, our raptor friends sometimes overestimate their skill level.

Bald Eagles can only carry about 4 lbs.

My cats get to chatter at the patio door while the chickadees and cardinals feast in the feeders.

There's also a certain irony in the fact that the most destructive bird killing species introduced to North America was itself killed by a bird.

They love it

Attacks by predatory birds was listed as a reason, along with being killed by cars, for doing so.

In this case, both seem to have been involved.

We adopted a mother cat and her son. The mother, who apparently came from a shelter after having been abandoned or run outside in heat in an urban area, has no interest in going outside ever again

Her son, by contrast, is interested in doing so and we have to actively restrain him from it.

chipmunks, flying squirrels, shrews, and lizards. Twice we came home to a live bird flying around the house that he brought in through the cat door (probably a gift for us to play with). Since then, all our cats have been indoor only. Besides cars and large bird attacks, outdoor cats are exposed to diseases and parasites from other cats and animals, as well as coyotes.

The cat had a characteristic hop that might have passed him off as a rabbit to the owl. He was attacked at dust and despite talon wounds he dispatched the owl and made a meal out of him. By morning there wasn't much left of it.

I started doing that, I saw something swoop down out of the sky at a squirrel just outside my window. The squirrel did not react, but the raptor must have seen me at the window because it swooped up again just as it reached the squirrel without grabbing the squirrel.

I had a turkey fly into my windshield in Calif. I was coming down the mountain, and it just burst up out of the brush. The guy behind me pulled over behind me. He had 4 or 5 kids in his truck. He asked--Are you going to keep that? I said, hell no! He threw it in the back of his truck and drove off.

The Bob K jokes are obvious here.
