An American Airlines Boeing 737 (like the one below) reportedly struck a bird descending through 900-feet on approach to La Guardia today.

Speculation is the bird or birds are smaller than the Canadian Geese which downed the US Airways jet into the Hudson River earlier this year, since the geese are not migrating through the area this time of year.

There were no reports of injuries or significant damage to the aircraft.
