Yet another machine, a vacuum I think, is heard next door. So noisy is this hood truly.

But very sweet and safe.

The sun is beaming outside. I should put on some music over the sound of the vacuum cleaner next door. The window is open for fresh air.

And to hear the birds.

BJG said the barred owls are back. He heard two one day last week and one again later in the week.

They were quite abundant 10 years ago but disappeared since covid 2020 and the invasion of Mundy by everybody and their dogs.
