Not all naturally occurring phenomenon can or should be interpreted as an omen. This is in my opinion one such case.

It is not uncommon for birds to mistake windows in buildings as open space. The reflection of the trees and other natural features of the out of doors in the glass of the windows can mislead a bird into flying into the glass. Most small birds are quite delicate and the impact can stun them and in many cases kill them. The bodies then fall to the area below the window, in this case a porch.

Another explaination for the body would be the presence of a cat or some other domestic animal who still has the instinct to hunt.

Shape shifters, dragons, elves, witches/wizards, dwarves, gnomes, pixies/fairies, etc. There are many other creatures but these are probably the most known.

In Arabic, a Djinn (also jinn, genie) is a supernatural creature.

Cuchulain serves to act as Ireland's 'Hercules' or 'Achilles' he is a representation of the perfect warrior and one trait that was and still is very prominent among the Irish is a stubborn sensibility and a refusal to back down regardless (the Northern Irish problems are a precise example).

The episode with Connla is created to signify Cuchulain's brutal stubborn nature. It is a common theme throughout Ultonian mythology that Cuchulain will never turn down a fight (except in the instance with Fergus' whereby master and pupil make an agreement).

So the myth is, You shouldn't bring umbrellas in the house because it is bad luck, it is a myth.

olivercharm:

The story behind the myth of not being able to bring umbrellas in the house originated from the Mayans. Bringing/opening an umbrella in the house was thought to disrespect the sun-god, whom the Mayans had much respect for. It became an old wive's tale, but it's actually an old Mayan's tale.

Since fairies aren't brought by your standard stork, we must assume that there is some other form of delivery. Generally a baby fairy arrives in the mail. Depending on whether the unions are striking or not, this could mean that a baby fairy could arrive in two days or two months. It is very hard to tell; each fairy baby's trip through the mail is different. Fairy unions like to go on strike, and as they will get drunk and forget what they are striking over and won't return to work until they are sober again, pinpointing a delivery day is almost impossible.
