  1. When the weather is going to be bad this is how you know the curlews fly towards the mountain, and the bees come out side the hive and doint go any farther they just go in again.
    Another way you know is when the cat goes into ashes and when the horse stands against the wind or a donkey against the wind, and a blue blaze on the fire.
