What The Augury?

Birds have been around for longer than most of us can remember. Their clairvoyance can save us all.

 

Auguries

According to some guy who did a semester at University of Nebraska at Omaha, in the time of Ancient Greeks (or possibly Romans), Auguries were part-fortune teller, part-royal advior and 100 percent party animal. From just the flight patterns of birds, they could predict the weather, outcomes of battles and their own need to get paid up front for services, with a degree of accuracy that we can only guess is near perfect. Sadly this science is lost to history. But with the emergence of augmented reality— a technology which sounds kinda like Augury— maybe the birds were right after all.
