NGL, in a pinch get a good nature sound app and pop in the earbuds and just crash out on the sofa and listen.
I have been using one called Naturespace for a decade and it’s glorious. Best track is called The Imaginarium. Whoa.
Gonna just let people know about MyNoise, tons of sound generators and most of the nature ones are made with field recordings.
Thank you, wil definitely check this out!
Thanks for this. This is fantastic!
Have you ever listened to field recordings? It’s a genre of audio recordings that include nature sounds. Bandcamp has a wide selection, sounds like you’d be interested.
Oh, I’ll check that out! Part of why I like the Naturespace recordings so much is that many are straight field recordings. There used to be an iOS ap called Ambiance that had the ability to record and share one’s own soundscapes. there were thousands of files available to download through the app and it was maintained until Apple dropped the 32-bit downloads from the AppStore. I got the best ones I could and have it still on a handful of older devices. Got to crack it open at some time and excise the sound files as it’s only a matter of time before the devices get spicy pillows and fail.
What a great idea for an app.
Birdwatching: get and support the Merlin app. Its a great way to find out what birds live or pass through your area.
Same with iNaturalist for plants and fungi!
My immediate assumption is that any observations made by me are meaningless noise and that I should avoid making them unless I see something really weird. But that could also be a problem because then it looks like shiny Caterpie is really common in this area while the regular one is rare. Do you know what behavior the creators of the app prefer?
I do not know, and I didn’t find much on their site other than a few good practices listed here: https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/community+guidelines
They do have a forum where etiquette questions come up, so that might be a good place to get a feel for it, e.g. https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/inat-posting-etiquette-questions/15317/5
The main thing seems to be honesty about your observations (if you’re unsure of an ID, note that) and be available for comments and corrections on your posts.
Good luck!
Thank you very much!
geese. geese are what pass through my area.
What does it mean that this bird is “likely in 4 today”?
Ugh, I hate that they demand I make an account. Why‽
It’s definitely good for people who struggle with a wide array of mental health issues, and is good prophylaxis against the same.
Slowmaxxing my travel ironically makes the journey feel shorter
We need friction between us and the things we want to do, otherwise the things we want to do will feel meaningless and hollow
How does one spend 15 minutes making coffee?
NO TIME!
What is the 48 cookies doing in here lol.
Probably what you have after Lex Luthor steals 40 cakes
My brain just automatically supplied “hour” 48 hour cookies. (You make the dough then chill it in the fridge for a couple days to make the flavor change.)
My stand mixer would cry trying to make 48 cookies in a go. I’ll stick with 24 and eating them all up then making more!
I read it as 48-hour chocolate chip cookies. I make those often actually. I find with my recipe especially the 48-hour rest really helps the cookies flavor. It’s been fun. Experimenting.

This is how they taught you to spell?
That is the correct spelling in this context.
They’re just grammarmaxxing
