Bird flew in my grill - Need help getting it out!

Hi, A bird flew in front of my car a few days ago while I was driving. I realized today that it actually flew right into the grill and is laying at the bottom right in front of the radiator. I know I will need to remove something at the top, front or bottom. I really want to get this bird out but need advice on the easiest way to do it. Thanks in advance.

I know for me after doing it once, I can take off the front grille pretty easily now. 3 tabs to press on the tops and bottoms each, one tab on the sides--all while gently pulling outward.

I can loan you a cat but you will need to fly it first class both ways.
