Yellow Bird
A yellow bird flitting through a dream was no glad omen: it foretold some great event that would cast a sickening fear of the future over you, and seen sick or dead, that you'd suffer for another's reckless folly. Sometimes the dream asks what dread has begun to colour the days ahead, and whose mistake you fear you'll end up carrying.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for yellow bird, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see a yellow bird flitting about in your dreams, foretells that some great event will cast a sickening fear of the future around you. To see it sick or dead, foretells that you will suffer for another's wild folly.
