A fantail came inside at my daughter's preschool today and fluttered around the 
building for a few minutes before finding its way back out.

According to Maori legend, if a fantail comes indoors it's a harbinger of 
death.  But she found two four-leaf clovers in the lawn beforehand so maybe 
it'll cancel out.

Cheers,
Dave
