My First Kill

So I was washing my car today and as I got to the bumper, I saw this:

poor bird. happened to my sister once, and she didn't know, then a week later there's a note on her car and it asked to remove the dead bird from the grill because it was disgusting.

were you able to fix the grill?

Yeah...driving over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge back in like '92 or so my father hit a seagull. Feathers all over the windshield at 60+mph...horrible. No damage to the car...can't say the same for the gull.

The grill was ripped up on the bottom portion of it. There's no way to salvage it. I have no idea how much, it's going to cost to get a new one, but I'm sure it'll be $$$. I'll let you guys know when I find out.
