Red sky in the morning...

.....shepherd's warning. There's always someone who has a new-to-me slant on these old saws. To me a beautiful sky like this at 6.30am means rain later. Rain = bad in my book therefore a warning to the shepherds of bad weather to come. Not so, says the other school of thought. Red sky means no rain - and harder birthing. For some reason that isn't reasonable to me (but then I know less than nothing about animal husbandry) rain makes birthing lambs easier for the mothers. Is it a lubricant??

Whatever. It was a beautiful sky.

P.S. Five hours later. It is pouring with rain!!
