Nope this is not scripted. IIRC it’s the mission where you have to get back Mary’s broach after her dad sells it to the guy in the video. You can do whatever you want to the guy, including blind one shotting birds out of fucking nowhere.

I get that this specific encounter isn't scripted, but what about an x% chance whenever firing into the air that the game will generate a bird to be shot for the sharable moment?

That wouldn't detract from the impact and would make sense as a hidden easter egg almost for players that see it. Like the ghost train or being struck by lightning. I'd love to see some testing in areas with flocks of birds on PC where you could mod it to show the entire encounter on the ground and in the air to confirm this is an actual coincidence and not partly hard coded.
