The villagers of Beixing in Shanxi Province are listening to frogs to get the latest weather forecast.
If the large green frogs of the area rattle off a machine-gun like barrage of croaks, a gale will blow in six to eight hours. When the black and white-striped frogs with a flower-like pattern on their backs emit muffled croaks, a heavy rain will fall within two or three days. A small frog with black spots on its back can predict a drought. Most frogs are silent when it is raining, but the croaking of a small black frog signals a clearing.
