ACMS said,"mmmmm. I've had quite a few bird strikes on LDG and suspected bird strikes and the Engineers never asked for the flaps to be extended. Maybe that's a good idea for the future, never thought of it before."
Prolly be a better idea to shut the aircraft down with the flaps extended if a birdstrike was suspected, or any flap problem for that matter.
