- (continued from previous page)If sheep come home from a hill or pasture field it denotes snow.
If spiders creep from their webs it is a sign of rain is coming.
Shining threads are often seen in the fields in Summer for good weather.
If swallows are seen late in the year it is a sign of a boggy Winter.- Collector
