  1. Weather Signs

    Share Share Post
    The Seagull coming into the land is a sign of bad weather. The hens picking themselves
    The cat sitting with his back to the fire
    The crows flying low
    Signs of fine weather
    The smoke going straight up from the chimney into the clouds
    A fog rising from the water
