Augury

Not haruspicy and really it's an auger that's the great tool. It's a month too late to be getting the rest of the oak leaves, plus oak flowers and pecan flowers out of the gutters. The drain auger (plumber's snake) took quite a while to bore its way through the clog in the downspout. This is a downspout that has never before been a problem. When the clog was finally broken, the sound made was of mighty rushing waters!
