Then go birdwatching! At least, this Times of India article says that you can tell the character of your future husband by the first bird you see on a birdwatching trip on Valentine’s Day.

Interesting. The first bird I saw this morning was a mockingbird. So not going there.
@Wren: That just means that your future husband will be a comedian. I hear that Conan O’Brien isn’t busy lately and we all know he loves birders…
