What bird sounds will make it rain?

When the stork cries, it will rain. The ancients once carefully observed the Zygomaticiformes (Figure 5) and found that they have many magical features. First of all, they can predict that it will rain and can give people some weather forecast tips. "The Book of Songs·Dongshan": "Storks sing on the ridge, and women sigh in the house." Zheng Xuan of the Han Dynasty explained: "Storks are water birds; they sing when it rains. Travelers suffer especially when it rains, and women sigh in the house when they think about it."
