"According to island legend, the Judas Bird is a mysterious, seldom-seen resident of Roatán Island Honduras that makes itself known to precious few in the first light of pre-dawn. Following each infrequent visit this elusive bird vanishes, with its mournful call never heard in the light of day. To hear the bird is an unusual event—an experience that foreshadows change, usually bringing good luck for the observer." |
