Oopsie... I had a similar experience once... bit strange this one too....
I had pulled into the local garage for a fill up (when I had me accord, so that's oooh... 1995 I think) and the bloke behind the desk, who I knew, said...
"Whats that bird doing in your car?"
Puzzled I said "Oh her the other day, was my new girlfriend" (cos I'd just started a new relationship!)
"Nah, whats THAT BIRD doin in your car, in the engine?"
Not very helpful that - I was rather puzzled and just left the garage, only then when I got home, with the aim of cleaning the car top to tail did I realise that he'd been on about some sparrow or something that was wedged arse first in the radiator vents (under the bumper on that car)
My last encounter (funny enough, not had the civic long) was with a particularly lazy and stupid wood pigeon, who decided that at 7am, the best place for a kip is a side road... cue me bearing down on said moronic fowl, a quick take off and then a lovely view of its bum about an inch from me windscreen....
Mate of mine had his car (wasn't a Honda so shame on him) written off by an airborne cow. Seriously. It jumped over a hedge in a field, the fields were higher up than the road was, the cow landed on the roof. Lucky for him it was at the back end but the car was stuffed.
Don't think he eats beef even now.
