   When the swallows fly high we know that the good weather is come. A mist on the hills is also a sign of good weather. A red sky at sunset is a good sign. When the birds sing after the rain it is a sign that it is going to clear up. When the cocks crow in the morning it is a sign the day will be fine. When the hills look distant it is a sign of good weather. When the smoke ascends in a straight line it is a good sign.
