You can't do much about birdstrikes and airport staff driving stairs into the door.
This is not an extraordinary circumstance which would allow KL to avoid paying EC261/2004 compensation. This is the fault of the supplier, so ultimately it lands in the hand of KLM. KL has every right to claim back these EUR 600 from its supplier.
