The instructor I had in CA was doing a ferry flight in a Bonanza when he hit a large bird crossing the mountains. He was at 12k feet when it came through his side of the windshield. He said it was a long time getting over the mountains so he could get down. I have not had a bird strike. Almost had a cat strike though in Madison. I think I cleared it by several inches.
