Plucking pheasant

This morning whilst blasting the RS4 across the Ashdown Forest on my way to Newhaven a plucking pheasant ran out in front and under the front of the car. It disappeared with a small puff and I thought no more of it until I reached my destination - To find the lower left hand plastic mesh had gone completely, together with the concealed headlamp washer and cover. I would not have believed that small bird could have done that unless I had seen it with my own eyes.

After my meeting, I retraced my journey and after some searching found a patch of feathers on the verge. The bird had been completely vapourised, but I found the plastic mesh and the headlamp washer cover intact. Refitted the mesh, which made me feel a good deal better as I bet it would have been the price of a small house from Audi. May the bird rest in peace.
