My M3 ate a bird
The sad news is that I killed a bird going about 120. The good news is that it missed my bumper and got sucked right into the left side air intake inlet. I had to open the air intake box to get to it.

Sad to see the poor bird but I've hit many a gopher on the track and all I ever see is it bouncing off to the side in my rearview mirror.

Same happened to me about a year ago; while bird didn't go up the intake, a whole bunch of feathers did and then they got expelled from the hood vent (thereby confirming that at partial throttle and at speed, air comes out of the hood vent, in case there were any doubters).
