Who would have thought a 924 was eco-friendly? sort of . . .
While standing near the car I heard a noise of something small and hard hitting the rear screen - and then another and then a third.
Whatever they were they had fallen off and were jumping about on the ground and then flying off only to come back and crash into the rear hatch.
When I caught one I realised it was one of these:-

and it had obviously mistaken the nearly horizontal glass for the surface of a pond, which they normally dive into at quite a speed.
This time they just got a headache . . .
Any other strange brushes with nature out there?
