It was quite amusing. You could not pay enough money for the publicity this brought him.

That bird must be very accustomed to being around people, to jump up on the lectern so close to him, and also not get spooked by all the yelling...

A wild bird flying into one's house is a portent of ill luck, possibly even death.

But if a birdie poops on your head it's a sign of good luck. Go figure.

A bird flying into your chest while riding a motorcycle is a portent that your day might REALLY suck...especially if it's a 20+lb wild turkey.

Heck, a bumble bee, cicada, any semi-large bug flying into you while riding sucks (and hurts).
