The impact looks like larger and softer material. Or a piece of lighter man-made materials.
-I assume the entire outer shaded glass was shed.
-The large circular portion of the middle glass is obviously the contact point. There is no centralized hardened impact indication like any solid metal object with weight would cause, and would penetrate into the cockpit.
-There is a lack of impact around the window frame from the first strike.
-The 'brow' skin being pulled back indicates a secondary bounce, and an object with more than one centers of mass.

It's not a wing strike and small drones wouldn't be that high.
There is an African buzzard that reaches that height but wrong location and would leave blood.
Space ice or maybe a piece of panel might make that result. Material analysis ftw
