Day 59 of Wonder

Living in Germany often means never being very far from the sound of modern living. Cars, people, tractors, aeroplanes, the list is endless of these ever present intrusions into our senses. Adaptation is one of our marvels. Our capacity to block out unwanted sounds. To enjoy nature despite these intrusions.

On my walk today, there was a moment, when the only sounds were the wind in the trees and random bird calls. Even the wolves that reside about half a kilometre away in a wild-life park, had fallen silent. Magic moment.
