Question

Explain the symbolism of the bad weather at the end of the story "The Scarlet Ibis"

Answer 1

Answer:

The storm at the end of “The Scarlet Ibis” by James Hurst portends impending disaster just as the first storm does earlier in the story. The Scarlet Ibis arrived in the yard as a result of being carried off course by a storm. It was weak, and out of its element which resulted in its death.
