- (continued from previous page)If the water-hens are cackling we will have rain. If the wild geese are roaring we will have rain.
- The people of this of this district know what kind of weather we are going to have by the sky.
The Sky. If the sky is black we will have rain.
The sun. Of the sun rises early in the morning we will have rain.
The wind. If the wind blows from Clara there will be rain.
Animals. If the dog barks at a door we will have rain. - Collector
