I came downstairs to my bedroom as I was changing my son's clothes I heard a scratching above me I look up and there sitting on the wall hanger was a sparrow, my husband and I tried to calmly get it out, finally it got so mad it was bouncing off the wall, my husband got it by trying to stun it and it knocked the bird out he thought that he hurt it's wing he put it outside and after awhile flew away. I've heard stories of birds in the house as an omen to death I was just wondering what this could mean espically if it got hurt. Noone came in or out my basement doors from the outside all day and it's closed off from the other parts of the house so I have no idea how the bird even got in.

In apalachia where I grew up; a bird in the house was perceived to be a bad omen.
About 20 years ago a bird got into my house in Tennessee by coming down the chimney and getting into the stove,
I was the onl one living there, and I am still here. ;-)

A Bird In The House

As for how the bird got in, maybe there was a window open and a hole in a screen that you were unaware of. About the omen of death--that's just all superstitious. I personally do not believe in any of that stuff, so you'll be fine. I'm sure the bird will be fine as well; most animals are able to heal themselves easily in their natural environment.

No, it's superstition. Put it like if you had a pet bird in your house, someone would die. If it was like that, we wouldn't have any pet birds!

Try to find an opening or open window. The bird just got in, nothing omen about it.
