Low flying birds indicates that rain is on the way. The falling air pressure creates discomfort in their ears causing them to fly at a lower elevation.
Grew up near the water with low flying gulls so that is when I originally found out about this natural indicator of rain.

Just learned this morning on the radio. There are twelve thousand zoos in the world. That means how many animals are kept in restricted environment. Or worse are actually caged just for our amusement and entertainment. Also came across another interesting fact regarding water. 80% of water used for irrigation. 16% for industry. And just 4% for residential consumption.
