Holy crap!  That was some bird strike.... how the hell did the rider stay upright?  Damned unfortunate for the other fella tho....

Less than a second, no chance of avoiding that collision I'm afraid and yeah bloody shame for the bloke whose bike got trashed but nobody to blame there.

I suspect having a bird smack into you at those speeds would be... uncomfortable.....



Still, better than a kangaroo. (news article (https://www.qt.com.au/news/motorcycle-rider-killed-in-collision-with-kangaroo/2317201/))
