This experience happened to my mom, but it’s a common legend in our country. The “Devil Bird”, an unidentified species of bird due to its elusiveness and may be native to our lands, has a strange, human-like screech that is commonly associated with the death of someone you know. There was a Devil Bird that would shriek uncannily for weeks around 2000-2004 back when my mom was in her teenage years, and strangely afterwards, her father had passed. Along with my grandfather, more of our close relatives had also started to pass, a lot of them by cancer. It is unsure if this was just a coincidence.
