Josh Brookes completed a lap at the Isle of Man TT on Monday with a sma🅺shed screen🔴.

Brookes struck a bird during Qualifyiꦰng 1, the first day of the legendary motorsport event this year.

The FHO ꦬRacing BMW Motorrad rider hit the bird aꦓt Bray Hill yet remarkably still lapped at 123.856.

His team display♔ed photos of his smashed screen after the session.

Wildlife can occasionally b🧔ecome a factor at the🌱 TT.

Birds, in particular, have been a dangerous factor at th🅘e TT multiple times over the years.

Paul Jordan was left with facial i♈njuries two years ago when he hit a pigeon at 200mph. It did not stop him securing his first TT podium.

Dean Harrison insisted that his Senior TT performa🌠nce was hindered in 🐷2022 after striking a bird.

Yell𒊎ow flags were brought out in 2016 when marshalls spotted a chicken had wandered onto the closed road🍌.

Fortunately for Brookes o🥃n Monday, no harm was done to him. But his bike - and the b𝐆ird - took the brunt of the impact.

Brookes finis🌸hed 10th in the Superbike class and 11th in the Superstock class in Qualifying 1 on Monday.
