sionnach commented on the word gabriel's hounds
wild geese. The noise of geese in flight is like that of a pack of hounds in full cry. The legend is that they are the souls of unbaptized children, wandering through the air until the Day of Judgement.

I'd almost forgotten about that legend, sionnach. It's haunting.
