Normally they don't but it's a proven fact that birds being caught by a plane's turbines could somehow affect flight performance and pose a serious threat.

Planes regularly hit birds while flying or on takeoff and landing. Almost all only cause a slight dent in the plane. Birds have gone through windshields and killed pilots or into turbines and shutdown engines, but that is very rare.

Most birds will simply leave their mark if you come in contact with one.
