    of on the trees it is a sign of rain.
    If crows fly high it is a sign of good weather.
    If there is a mist over the bogs in the evenings it is a sign of the next day being good.
    It is a sign of storm if the seagulls alight in the fields on a wet day.
    If there is a blue blaze in the fire it is a sign of storm.
    If the crows fly low it is a sign of stormy weather.
