Callum McAlister was driving home from IKEA in Sauchie when the shocking incident unfolded.
Dashcam footage shows the moment a seagull picks up a squirrel and crashes into a car full of surprised passengers.
Callum McAlister, 36, was driving home from IKEA with his girlfriend and two-year-old daughter on Alloa Road in Sauchie, Scotland, on June 14, when his windscreen was left blood-stained thanks to the predator.
He said: “We saw it as it started to take off in front of that other car in the video and we were both in disbelief about what the seagull was carrying, then, as you see in the video, not long after, it strikes the windscreen.
“There’s no sound on the video, but it was a big thud and there was a long red-coloured wet streak running up the glass, which, fortunately, was not captured on the dashcam.
“We were shocked but we realised the seagull would have just bounced off the car upwards and the squirrel took most of the brunt of the car.
“The seagull was probably fine.
“We went back to the road and it was nowhere to be seen.”
Callum added: “I only got that Dashcam like two weeks ago as well.
“So, a sound investment so far, because I don’t think anyone would have believed us.”
On Reddit, social media users shared their amazement at.
User Naughteus_maximus wrote: “Top 3 contender for dashcam video of the year right there.”
While Advanced_Arm1531 joked: “Drive through fast food.”
