Peregrinus,

Thank you for this enlightening video! I posted it to all my Facebook friends. Noise is EXACTLY the reason why my partner and I are moving to a quieter neighborhood in the city. Ideally, we would have a cottage with a garden and woods in the country, but that's not possible now. It's better that we'll be away from the noise of downtown (where we'll be until the last weekend in March) and one floor above a bar/nightclub. Yikes!
I listened to some lovely bird songs on YouTube. Actually, I was underneath gorgeous pink and white blooming camellia trees in our new neighborhood the other day, taking in the sun and listening to the birds singing. Ahhh....

Love and Light,
