I ran this by my GF who is the resident spooks and superstitions genius. She said depending on what part of the world you live in it's finding a dead bird in front of your home is bad luck. Striking one with your car is probably just bad luck for the bird. Some places it's a black bird, others it's a white bird but generally it's not just any random bird.

But for your peace of mind, a friend of mine retired safely after 20 years as a United pilot and lost count of how many birds he took out. Including one that left a thud in his rudder pedal and a sizable dent in his vertical stabilizer. The mechanics wondered if it was actually a bird, or superman.
