Very late doing crossword today......
LOI
9d: Watchful gaze of sheep - indeed, they say (7,3)
The answer is "weather eye" = watchful gaze (definition)
but cannot parse the rest of the clue.
Help appreciated, please.

Thank you, Mamya
I would never have got that - I didn't even know that 'wether' meant sheep!
