अण्डीरकष्टीइति रुतेन पूर्णष् टिट्टिट्टिशब्देन तु दीप्त उक्तः । फेण्टः शुभो दक्षिणभागसंस्थो न वाशिते तस्य कृतो विशेषः ॥ ८८-२६ ॥

If the Aṇḍīra be heard to sound as ṭī, it indicates good luck and if the cry be ṭiṭṭiṭṭi, it indicates evil. If the Pheṇṭa be seen on the right side, it indicates good luck. The sound of this bird signifies neither good nor evil.
