where i lived, there's some kind of a belief that when a certain birds called "sit-uncuing" (in my mother language, that is) making noise for days/weeks around some people's place, it's believed that someone is going to die. i'm not a superstitious person, but this thing was happened when my late father passed away two years ago. for like two months the air was heavy by the birds' singing. after my father died, the noise was gone.
Beautifully done.
