It just has to be a cause of stress. We are built to survive by monitoring the environment and sounds plays a big part of that constant assessment of safety and if rest is wise now or now. Also living 20 feet from a super busy road. It's awful.

I will never forget sitting up half the night with my 88 year old Dad cheering on the fabulous @bluejays.com. They ROCKED it! There were no losers in that game. None. Well done them!

@weathernetwork.bsky.social Screens excellent! But a couple edits:
- do not wait for multiple strikes to act!
- bird feeder position of 1 m is a hazard. Mark glass & move feeder CLOSE.
- Muntins on exterior to deter strike. Structure and added markings 2” gap max.
Tks!
