What can you hear through your windows?

[bluegrasse]

We're hearing lots more birds, there are more coming to our garden to be fed now - I think a lot of people must have run out of bird food but we buy a big sack a couple of times a year.

We've got more squirrels too, or maybe we are just noticing them more.

We've got a motorway about a mile away, the wind must be in the right direction as I can hear the traffic - I'm surprised it's still audible, there is that continous hum from it but I thought it'd be much quieter.

Birds too. Currently a lawn mower too.
Quite peaceful and the sun is lovely.

Forklift trucks whizzing around and their little beep beep sounds as they reverse. Birds cooing. There's a background hum that could be an industrial mower somewhere too.

There were owls hooting and calling all evening yesterday

Birds. The waterfall for my pond. No traffic noise. So peaceful.

Lots of birds and the motorway here too. The latter isn't too surprising- I think the noise from lorries carries more than cars, and there's plenty of those working.

No planes, it's surprising how often even in the countryside there's a drone from overhead.n

A male cheffing.

Birds, lots of them, someone’s got a lawnmower going and earlier heard the unmistakable whir and bottle chink of the milk man’s van going down the lane.

Chaffinch

Not cheffing. Blummin autocorrect.

Birdsong .

Magpies, children laughing, a tram on the main road.

We are lucky and have a family of deer living behind our garden. Beautiful to watch at the best of times but we're loving it just now.

Ah, so not a lunchtime BBQ?

Traffic. Something continuous like an angle grinder. A pigeon.

I live on the main road into a small market town. Honestly, sometimes it feels like nothing has changed here.

Dd telling DH not to move, she's in charge🤔

Chiffchaffs!

Birds, distant sheep, occasional dog bark, children's voices, tractors.
The rasping sound of DH wire brushing the gates, rather unwillingly, it has to be said. 🙂

My very noisy children playing. For some reason they have to shout instead of talk normally (any tips gratefully recieved).
An equally loud blackbird.
Various other birdd and bees.
The neighbours washer.
Wind in the trees.
Other families playing.
It's nice.

Fucking Virgin Media digging up the pavements. They started at 7:30am 😑

Tractors, grass cutting loads of birdies!

We have the door wide open and I can hear birds, some dogs barking, a still saw, some farm machinery, birds, an engine, someone's radio, an occasional child and some people talking.

We had that a few weeks back. The workmen here were a pain in the rear!

I can hear an Easter service throught he wall to the next flat.

I can hear the wind. I don't think it's exceptionally strong, but it's coming from an unusual direction. We mostly get it from the northwest (back of the house), this is, according to the met office, East north easterly.

Right now from my front bedroom window I can hear some blackbirds singing, blue tits tittering, and some blooming annoying drilling! Like a very loud dentist's drill, it's really making me cringe!

I'm just going to pop down to the kitchen for lunch - that's at the back and hopefully I won't hear the drilling!!
