If you are counting them, then you can add a pigeon, a starling, and
possibly a badger to my total then. (there was one close encounter with a
great dane that was scary - it was bigger than the car!)

Well if you are going too count vermin you have ruined my accident free
period.
I had a pigeon fly into my front nearside wheel while I was doing 70 on the
M6 about 15 years ago.
There was a huge cloud of feathers behind me and an imprint of a pigeon on
my tyre sidewall.
