## Discrepancy

FLIGHT 9405 RETURNED TO THE FIELD AFTER THE AIRCRAFT BEHIND THEM REPORTED SOMETHING FELL OFF THE AIRCRAFT.  THE CREW ALSO RECEIVED A FEEDER TANK LOW CAS MESSAGE.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND FOUND THAT A SMALL BIRD HAD STRUCK THE VERTICAL STABILIZER.  MAINTENANCE THEN INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE RIGHT HAND REFUELING BOX IN ACCORDANCE WITH 28-00-00.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS AND A FUNCTIONAL CHECK FLIGHT WERE PERFORMED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
