Refrigerator humming.
Steady traffic on Major.
Me breathing as I edit a newsletter.
Occasional outbursts of:
Light showers.
Torrential downpours.
Buzzing chickadees.
Chirping cardinals.
Rollicking wren.
Furious blue jays, high-pitched “Help meeee” of broad-winged hawk.
Motorcycle on Major: whine ascending to b’dowdowdow.
Grinding gears of large item pick-up.
Squirrel munching seeds under the birdfeeder. Okay, I can’t hear him. But I see his jaw moving.
