- (continued from previous page)She lays five eggs, with white and brown spots. She sits on the eggs for three weeks. The wren builds its nest in a bank, with hair, and moss, and feathers. She lays seventeen white eggs. The sparrow builds its nest in the eve of a house. The lark builds its nest on the ground. She lays three eggs, with white and grey spots. It is wrong to rob a bird's nest. It is said that misfortune will follow any boy who does so.
When the swallow flies low it is a sign of rain. When the crow dives it is a sign of wind.
When the seagulls come inland it is a sign of a storm.- Collector
