Oh jackdaws .Yes we do have those too but they’re in the tall trees at the bottom of the garden so I don’t hear them so much .It’s quiet in the countryside don’t you know .🫤😉
@bcpathome isn't it just? 😄 I wouldn't change it for the world though. Well, actually I'd just add the sound of waves breaking gently on my private beach... 😉
Me neither. Takes some getting used to I’ve heard if you’re not used to it .I’ve lived here in Buckinghamshire all my married life ( 50 years) before that in rural Hertfordshire, wouldn’t live in town for quids .Mind you some days. ………..
I've lived in many places, noisy to quiet and everything inbetween! They put some new houses up nearby us in our village a few years ago, and the difference in traffic noise is shocking! I'd love to be miles from anywhere, with a little cottage and about 800 acres..
Birds seem to nest in the most surprising places. We have a robin family in the shed but my watering had to be suspended for a while a couple of years ago when a bluetit built a nest in the top of the hand pump over the well. How it managed to get in and out through the tiny opening is a mystery.
