 Topic: Fantails
Posted: 21 April 2008 at 1:03pm |

Afternoon ladies, in about the past month we have had about 12 or so Fantails fly inside. I dont know why they are, they hang around the house and try and fly in at any change they get. I dont no if its the same bird or heaps of different ones.
I have been told that if you just let them fly out by themselves and dont chase them out then it doesn't mean anything.
Wat do you all think?

Um maybe you have some sort of plant that attracts them right by your house or something, because 12 is a lot.
I don't want to scare you but isn't that if one comes inside someone is going to die? I haven't heard that if you don't chase them out its ok. One flew inside at Jacks birthday party and 2 days later mum got a phone call saying her cousin had died.

Haven't got any plants that would attract them.
With there being so many of them that's alot of people to die, if its meant to be someone we know.

We've had one in our house a couple of times too, we've just left them to it, and eventually they just fly out. The most disturbing time was when it sat on the pantry door and looked down at Conor and I and made a strange noise. No one in our family has died though. So I'm not too fazed by it now, I was at first.
My aunty said that it could also be a sign that a spirit has come to say hello, I guess it's what you believe in.

I think the myth is that if they fly out the same way they came in ie in the back door and out the back door then its fine but if they go out a different way it is suppose to mean someone is going to die. Not sure if I believe it or not but i think thats the way it goes.

this is what i believe. at my nan's funeral there was a fantail flying around the garden (behind a big glass wall we were all facing) and it stopped on a log and sat there the whole way through the 'ceremony'.
i often have a fantail follow me when i'm walking through the forest too.

Maybe it's that then, because in January my cousin was killed in a farm accident, he was only 24.
I guess it could be him coming to say hi, just not sure if i believe in that sort of thing or not.
Will see if it sticks around or not.
