A woodpigeon's last moments on the winglet of an Embraer 175 from Lyon landing at BHX - death would have been instant, so no suffering.
Usually woodpigeons are extremely good at evading planes they encounter - like the 'companion' of the deceased bird who missed the wheels with amazing agility.
Odd to see the mighty Emirates 777 held up while the body was recovered. This also delayed the approaching Thomson 757 which had to go around because of the obstructed runway.
