So I went out for a scratch today. Got back and my mate started laughing. Tweetie Pie is well and truely wedged in there. I can't pull him out. It looks like I'm going to have to remove the fairings! Tried pulling but all his feathers came out! Pretty sure i know when i hit him. Was doing around 95mphgoing round a nice sweeping right hander on the road that goes past Cadwell park!

As an update. The little bugger was well and truely stuck in there. I had to push him out from the rear to the front. Much squelching and cracking! Found a what appeared to be a kidney and liver stuck to the fairing on the inside alongside most of its blood. Overall no damage apart from the bird it self. Luckily I'm used to dealing with bird strikes on aircraft!

Looks like he was in there good. If it wasn't plastic torching him out would've provided a snack.
