A couple weeks ago we took a short road trip to Jackson. We leave in the afternoon or evening and drive through the night from WA to WY. I have plenty of illumination. We drove all around Jackson/Grand Tetons and never had any animal run in front of us or get on the road. We saw plenty off the side and in the ditch (alive and dead). A guy hit a deer about 30 seconds before we passed him.

It wasn't until I was outside Issaquah (for the locals), roughly 30 miles from home, that a deer ran across the road. 1600 miles and *now* you jump in front of me? Luckily the deer was just outside of headlight range when it got on I90.

Driving to work this morning going about 65, a damn turkey decides to try and fly across the road. Luckily he only hit the glass. Will be on the 3rd windshield in less than 1 year now. I am more pissed that the damn bird rolled in the road, got up and strutted into the trees like nothing happened. I was hoping he would have been dead and i coulda thrown him in my smoker.

Now you can change out that factory glass and get yourself a stronger one. I have hit a few birds. Nothing as big as a turkey though.
