No, apart from a large impression of the bird on the screen. Couldn't see anything on cursory inspection anyway. When I heard the bang I expected a cracked screen TBH, it was loud.

we used to get pigeon impressions on the glass where I used to work. They'd try to fly from one side on the control tower to the other via the shortest route. Ouch!

We don't get a lot of birds in Cyprus, so on my last visit to the UK, while driving from Heathrow to Yeovil in high winds i was pretty amazed to get 2 bird strikes in but 10 Minutes, one hit the screen and the other on the metal just above.

As an absolute animal lover, i was pretty gutted by both, but there is absolutely nothing i could have done.
