what changes take place when otis family start its journey from railway station to canterville chase. what does it indicates.

Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:

As Canterville Chase is seven miles from Ascot, the nearest railway station, Mr. Otis â€‹had telegraphed for a waggonette to meet them, and they started on their drive in high spirits. It was a lovely July evening, and the air was delicate with the scent of the pinewoods. Now and then they heard a wood-pigeon brooding over its own sweet voice, or saw, deep in the rustling fern, the burnished breast of the pheasant. Little squirrels peered at them from the beech-trees as they went by, and the rabbits scudded away through the brushwood and over the mossy knolls, with their white tails in the air. As they entered the avenue of Canterville Chase, however, the sky became suddenly overcast with clouds, a curious stillness seemed to hold the atmosphere, a great flight of rooks passed silently over their heads, and, before they reached the house, some big drops of rain had fallen. These ominous signs were the indication of the perils the Otis family would face in the castle. It was an omen to the future.
