actually, if anyone knows about native american lore, this is considered a
power sign.  i myself experienced one while driving my 90 vanagon on fifth
street bridge over the clark fork river in missoula montana. i was driving
along during mid day and all of the sudden a huge osprey flew (soared
actually) five feet in front of my windsheild with a rainbow trout in its
mouth. the trout was atleast 12-14 inches in length and still kicking in the
birds tightly clenched beak.  this was a very moving sight.  bill, i would
feel blessed that this happened, only good can come from this.
