Question Bird Strikes

I'd be interested to hear more stories of bird strikes... a few times I've passed high-flying birds in the middle of nowhere (e.g. approaching the town of Aylesbury at approx 2,000', something like a Kite maybe?) and wondered what would happen if it had hit me... I presume the bird would come of worse than the Dakota!

And this weekend, I'm planning to fly a Warrior from an airfield where proximity of birds is warned of in the Bottlang VFR plate for the field, so wondering what other experiences people have had like eveepee of birdstrikes on climb-out of approach?
