Trivia: What bird is most often considered a bad omen in many cultures?
Vulture
Raven
Owl
All of the above
Correct Answer: All of the above
So why is this answer correct? : Owls play prominently in the superstitions of many cultures, a few of which see them as thieves of newly departed souls or as associates of evil witches. Some Native American legends, meanwhile, paint vultures in a less-than-flattering light, and ravens were seen as deliverers of ill fortune in Greek mythology. But for ornithologists and bird lovers alike, all three types of birds are among the most fascinating — and important — creatures that fill our skies.
