## Narrative

PIC SAW MANY BIRDS FLYING ALONG THE RIVER BELOW AND SEVERAL HAWKS/EAGLES CIRCLING THE RIVER BANKS. THE PATH TO THE RUNWAY WAS CLEAR. LANDING IN KSTP AT ABOUT 50 FEET AGL PIC HEARD A LIGHT THUMP AND AT THAT SAME TIME SAW A WHITE BIRD FLY PAST ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE AIRCRAFT. LANDING IN KSTP WAS ABOUT 1710Z.

WILDLIFE STRIKE REPORT FILED.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
