I am putting together a book with a working title of " Natures
Predictions - Traditional Ways of Predicting Life's Natural
Occurrences". Examples would be cows laying down meaning rain, how
high you carry a baby predicts the sex, and how high crows build
their nests predicting a good summer etc. If anyone would like to
let me have any of these sayings that they can remember, then I
would be happy to put their name along side it in my book.


Lots of Berries on the bushes and trees a bad winter

Why does cows lying down mean rain?


..... Even a cow knows that if you lie on wet grass you will catch
cold.
Therefore, doesn't it make sense to preserve a bit of dry grass to lie
on before it starts raining?

is not all that common.

have seen that ;-(
