Yep, what I called a buzzard is really a turkey vulture (North Carolina). And they are big as turkeys. They clean up the carrion, so part of the balance of nature.
And striped bass are known locally as 'rock' or 'rockfish'.
I also hit a buzzard the other day and it snapped off my Moose racing screen (22" tall). Bird and plastic flew right over my head. Lucky it wasn't worse. Have my stock shorty on there until I can get another touring screen - forgot how noisy and the strength of the wind blast on my chest.
After 3+ years of using this helmet, I still like it. Admittedly have not had a crash, so no acid test for safety. I did add a strip of foam to improve the faceshield upper seal and reduce wind noise.

No fluttering (hard mounted).
Good buy.
It IS a load for rubber wellnuts. They do not come with them, but do have longer bolts and standoffs.
When I bought the NC it had a broken Honda touring screen that has a subframe and is much more solid. But the holes are made for the regular mounting, so I re-used the nutplates and bought 4...

Good job on wind noise (very important to me all the time), okay for wind on chest (cold weather concern), non-existant protection for hands/arms (like my big ugly one).
