I had a dead crow on my porch for a year and I got it right when my mother started to die. It disappeared and another skeleton of a lizard was turned over and tossed on the porch. This never happens.
The last time someone in my close life died like this, a coyote left jackrabbit feet and a tail in front of my house.
Blessed Be
My first wife and I had a close friend who moved to CA. When we separated I got a phone call from the wife and I knew what she was going to say. Our friend had died.
Yes, actually. I knew about an hour or so in advance of anyone informing us that my dad had died. An owl told me.
FWIW, I understand that this form of perception is quite common. It doesn't exactly qualify as 'precognition,' but it's close.
It hasn't really happened to me to that degree but I can surely see the possibility of it happening.
Be Well!

These feelings or 'signs' aren't necessarily limited to death and dying. I, for instance, see blue butterflies right before a major life trauma; the end of a career; the death or sickness of a loved one; etc. It's gotten to the point where seeing one will send shivers down my spine.
And I'm not talking about just seeing a random blue butterfly zip past. The butterflies intending to get my attention do so in some rather peculiar and unmistakable ways.
Did you just 'know' or were you 'sent' some kind of 'messenger'?
Yep.
Kinda sorta. In this situation we knew my dad was dying, but of course we had no idea when. Then, on the morning after we got back from visiting him for what would be the last time, an owl perched itself right outside the room where I was sleeping and began to hoot. That in itself wouldn't be unusual, but in our neighborhood the owls only come out (and hoot) at night--and never from the tree right outside our window. (Owls generally don't like to perch within eyeshot of humans.) This was two hours after dawn on a cloudless day and the owl was louder than my alarm clock. It stopped hooting, it seemed to me, right after I mentally acknowledged its presence, and never again for the remainder of the time we lived in that house did I hear another owl at that time of day.
Anyway, about an hour after I heard the owl my wife received a call from my stepmom that he had died about an hour earlier...more or less at the exact time he'd died and at the same time, give or take, that I heard the owl. When she walked into the room, she said something like "I just got a call..." I interrupted her and said "dad died." She said yes.
Sometimes I think that any difference between past, present and future is all in our head. It's an illusion which is maintained--or a delusion which we maintain--to keep us from going bonkers. :-)
Why would you leave a dead crow on your porch for a year? But to the question, I don't at all believe in signs and omens.
Spurious. Try using such faux reasoning next time you're late to work or an appointment.
