Brummie- I told your story to my husband last night, he told me of another bird story that I thought you might be interested in.
He was listening to Coast to Coast Radio with Art Bell. I don't know if you're familiar with that show but usually it's about crazy phenomena, alien sightings, or ghosts. haha Mostly he listens just to get a kick out of it. Anyways, this show was talking about the dead, premonitions, etc. This lady called up and started telling her story.
One day she was leaving to go pick up her child from school. She was in a hurry because she didn't want her boy to get on the bus and miss her, usually the bus would take him home and he wasn't expecting her. She got off early from work and decided to suprise her son by picking him up at school. So... on her way out the door she noticed a bird stuck in her chain link fence. It was making all kinds of noise and she felt sorry for it struggling there stuck in the fence. She walked over to it and helped it get free even though she was in a hurry. Afterwards, she got in the car and started driving to her son's school. When she got there, the kids were lined up across the street to get on the bus when her son saw her parked on the other side of the street. He was only 5 years old and he got so excited seeing his mom that he started to run across the street to see her. At the same time a truck was coming down the street and about to hit the boy. Everyone was yelling to stop but he wasn't listening. Just then a bird flew at the kids face and was flapping it's wings in front of the boy. The woman doesn't know if it was the same exact bird she saved earlier but she said it looked the same. It scared the kid so bad that he stopped in his tracks and the truck just missed him.
Stories like this make me wonder if we are all connected in some strange way. Recently, I saw a movie you might be interested in called
I Huckabees. It's strange and unusual but at the same time funny and thought provoking. I liked it. It reminds me of this thread. ha
