Sorry to see that. It is very subtle, but I know you can see it now. I have a tiny dent in the back of my black one, and I think black shows dents up more, but nobody else has ever noticed it.

Be Zen about it: you got hit and scraped while parked but your tough Elgrand has barely got a dent 🫵🏻🤨✌🏼 Winning! 🥇 🚌

Yeah, I've accepted it now. I always park away from the bulk of the cars (which is why I was ultra peeved). As long as I keep it polished, it's not so noticeable.

It's been on the cards for a while, but now it's finally happened, I'll send the men in white coats round and get the nurses to increase your meds.

Should fit in the back of the Elgrand okay with the rear seats folded up. 🤣
 
You can see grey dust on the impact zone and all down the side of the car, the pigeon was travelling in the opposite direction to us - and the car was travelling at 60MPH and you could feel the impact, combined impact speed was high.

….Feathers everywhere like someone had burst a feather pillow.
 
Similar experience with a LR Discovery...pigeon exploded in a burst of feathers on contact with the bull bars.....but made it's way through the headlight and into engine bay,.save the lone wing flapping about in the air flow....
Surprisingly little blood too....
 
Aged about 15 a school friend of mine who was built like a brick sh#thouse decided to see how hard and high he could kick a basketball. He unleashed his biggest kick possible into the ball which flew up about 4 feet before hitting a passing pidgeon.
It took a good minute for the pink and grey cloud to to dissipate and reveal a hundred horrified children’s face including his and mine 🫨😵😵‍💫🥴🤯.
 
Awesome pics!
You’re all going to think I’m some sort of pidgeon on killer but I have another related story:

TRIGGER WARNING ‼️ ⛔️ (GRIM STORY BELOW WITH SOME BLOOD)
I worked in a glass office building, we would regularly get pigeon strikes against the window which left those “angel wings” marks in the glass. One day as I was considering resigning and taking another job as this one was depressing, I went downstairs to have a cigarette and consider my future. As I lit my cigarette I heard a loud bang, looked up and a pigeon that had struck the building was spinning down straight towards me. It landed right at my feet with another bang, and no word of a lie he looked up at me, blew a bubble of blood out of his nostril and died right there.

Luckily for me someone else was there also to see it as it was proper traumatic and felt like such a universal sign! (I’m not religious). I handed my notice in that week and it was a good decision. Thank you pigeon? 🤔
