This woman was driving at 55 miles per hour when a red-tailed hawk flew straight into her car and got its head stuck in the front grill. She stopped the car and was trying to figure out how to save the bird when a stranger came up to her and offered to help. He managed to take its head out of the grill and then set it free to fly.
