There is another sigh the sea gulls. They leave the sea and comes inland when a storm is coming when we are going to have a storm the swallow go under the water an fly very low to the ground. When we have frost the stars are numerous in the sky. They are all gilttering. If in the morning early if the sun is shinning it is a sigh of a wet day.
