   The distant hills are looking nigh,
   How restless are the snorting kine,
   The busy fly disturbs the kine,
   Low o'er the grass the swallows wing,
   And the crickets too how sharp they sing.

   The wind also show signs of both good and bad weather. When the wind blows from the north it is a sign of snow or frost. When the wind blows the east it is a sign of dry cold weather and when it blows from the west or south it is a sign of rain. A robin singing sweetly in a whitethorn bush is also a good sign of the weather and also to see swallows flying high up in the sky is a good sign. When the curlews are whistling inland it denotes a storm at sea.
   The animals also show signs of the weather for instance when a dog howls or eats grass it is a sign of rain. When a cat sits with its back to a fire it is a sign of rain. It is also a sign of rain when dust blows up off the road or if soot falls down the chimney.
