Bird Strike

I was kinda surprised yesterday to hear that one of our B747 suffered a bird strike at 35,000 feet, this caused enough damage to one engine that the flight diverted to a home airport rather than the destination.

I know that its migration season, but what sort of European birds cruise along at 35,000 feet ??
