Why are birds so good at avoiding getting hit by cars?

836 views

There will be times I’m on normal roads or even driving fast on a highway and have had very close encounters with birds flying aross the front of my car.

I never see dead birds on the road so I just assume they have some kind of special airflow mechanism that allowed them to avoid accidents.

According to the Audubon society, they aren’t. Seems they get hit by cars at a startling high rate.
