    (continued from previous page)
    the noise of a train or a stream is heard very far away. Turkeys fight. Thrushes and blackbirds flock together. Smoke goes up straight Many stars seen and they are sparkling.
    When a storm is coming Crows flock on the ground Horses bite each other. Crows fly very wild and turn very short in the air.
    When fine weather is coming Swallows fly high. Goats lie on the middle of the road The sun sets red Fog are seen over streams and rivers in the evenings
