So I'm watching TV last night and I notice a bird slowly hopping towards my patio door and then it starts flapping its wings rapidly as if it wanted to get in my house. It was a Mockingbird and it stood there for about 5 minutes or so flapping its wings and just looking at me - staring right at me.
Keep in mind I was sitting still watching TV, so I don't think I was drawing any attention to myself to bring the bird closer. The fact that it stared at me directly creeped me out; that and the fact that it stood there for a few minutes staring at me. I was taken back by the whole situation since I've heard that birds represent omens. You know, the Owl or Crow means death or something along those lines.
What the hell was this? Was this a sign of something good/bad about to happen?
The Internet hasn't shed much light on this since when you type "Mockingbird" you get the famous novel we all had to read in high school. So, I ask you, the TNL crowd, to help me shed some light on this incident. Was it just a random occurance or was there something deeper I should interpret?
