A sparrow landed on my leg. Is that a good sign?

I love birds.

It looked like a log GK!

Yes! You have a nice vibration.

Did it carry a coconut?

spring ie here :)

:CROWFUCKYOU:

(kidding)

It looked me in the eye. I remember reading that sailors got tattoos of sparrows for each trip across the Atlantic, and saw them as good luck.

That's the African sparrow I believe.

yep - birds fly joyously and land carefully

Hmm, yes, a good sign!

Thanks! I'd like to hope so.

I think its a good sign or positive natural connection considering almost every single species on the planet is terrified of humans..

I'd say it is! God speaks to us humans, through nature, all the time...
when I see a sparrow, it's reminded me of when, in the bible, it says that if God takes care of the little birds, then surely He cares for us also, and will meet our needs.
Has to be a good omen.
God bless!

good point!

They viewed them as a good sign because they never travel far from land, which meant when you saw one that you were close to land. I was sitting under a tree watching it, when it dropped down to my leg and looked at me. I wasn't at sea, but thinking about getting a sparrow tattoo now, since I was a sailor.

Yes, something about numbering every hair on your head, which isn't many, nowadays (mine anyway), lol.

I have looked into the eye of a bird before, and there seems to be wisdom there.

I never saw wisdom in a parakeet before, but the sparrow looked me in the eyes, did the tilt from side to side like he was trying to figure me out, turned his back to me then about 10 seconds later flew up to his branch. He knew I wasn't going to hurt him I guess. I just felt amazed at the time. The only thing that ever came close to that was when a Monarch butterfly landed on my nose.

Yes, spring is here!

I've heard that a bird getting into your house is a good sign, a blessing, or good luck, I forget.

Have had birds coming in the house for the past week. I think what it really means is my house is falling apart.

Awesome!!

I would totally embrace that as a good sign. Very rare for these little critters to bond with us that way.

Cheers!

Sparrows are omens of death. Really, no shit, look it up.

Practically speaking, you may be correct, but take it as a good sign anyway!

Bah humbug!

that's awesome

could you feel its vibrations?

Inside, not outside.

I could feel its heartbeat through my knee, via it's legs, probably because I was extremely focused. It was a bit surreal.

Thanks Abi!

no, they are very dangerous

If I were you I'd start thinking about hiding out for a few months until this whole thing blows over

Sure it wasn't a swallow?
