Narrative:

At 500 ft on short final runway 9R gru, encountered flock of buzzards. Saw one go under nose and thought we felt it impact belly. After parking and on postflt walkaround, noted one splatter on right main mount and a second had impacted left leading edge slat. On final, once the buzzards were seen, they dispersed and we were too close to landing to attempt avoiding them. Then, one never knows where they (birds) will go.
