I had a horrible experience a couple of days ago. It was one of those days with mixed rain and sleet. I was driving along downtown when suddenly, a bird crashed into my windshield. It hit so hard I thought it was going to crash through. I ducked for a second, and when I straightened up, I saw it was a big black bird or a crow. It was stuck to my windshield. Its wet feathers had frozen to the glass, but it was still alive – flapping its wings desperately trying to get free. I didn’t know what to do. I thought maybe if I turned on my wipers, it could break free. When I did, it did break free, but flew directly into the windshield of the car behind me which happened to be a police car. To make matters worse, the cop pulled me over and gave me a ticket.
He said I flipped him the bird.
