Jay,
I was told that birds like to dive down so the best way to avoid
hitting them is to pull the nose up. However, I have also read that
this may or may not work with different types of birds. I guess the
next best thing is to say a prayer providing that you have enough time

Think of it this way. Ducks and Seagulls are brainless. Geese will
try to avoid you except a flight of them believe they have the
"right-of-way". :-)) Everything else is unpredictable.
