Got this via email:

"This guy, like me, was coming from Phoenix into Show Low at 11,000 feet, about 20 miles west.  I talked to him shortly after I took this 3rd picture.  He never saw anything, just BAM!  Bird strike at 250kts or so. Wind.  Had glasses on, took them off and put a spare pair on, landed at Show Low.  Ambulance. 18 stitches.  Black eyes.  Blood everywhere in the cockpit.  When I took the photos, one quick pass had already been made at cleaning it out.  He literally just came from the hospital to see his plane.  He was obviously scared spitless, but amazingly calm. When I left Show Low, an A&P had been flown in and was taping over the window, they were having a new one flown in...will take a couple of days.  $15K+ for that windscreen.  A very minor ding where the bird's head hit on the frame, but otherwise, except for the blood, no damage to the plane.  They haven't determined the make/model of the bird.  Nothing left."
