Bill, Roster alarm clock. The best ever natural way to wake up in my humble opinion. I do love the night sounds too. Crickets, Cicadas, frogs, all sing a chorus with the occasional yip of a coyote in the back ground puts me to sleep. Suburban city life is where I am but my heart will always be in the country. Sadly cities to not allow roosters but dogs can bark all they want. It doesn’t really make sense to me but what do I know. 🙂
Have a great waking up to Folgers in the cup and roosters crowing. You lucky guy.
We were just talking about the evening sounds during our post-supper walk. This time of year it’s so loud outside in the evening that you have to raise your voice to be heard over the crickets, cicadas, and frogs. But in the winter there is silence. All we can hear is the ground (or snow) crunching under our feet. 🙂
It is within these small things we realise our many Blessings.. 🙂 for sure Bill.

Ah, the country life! I get woken up by birdsong these days, but a rooster crowing sure brings back my childhood on the farm.

I love this time of year, with the windows open at night and the rooster crowing just before sunrise. 🙂

I love a crowing rooster. Now, all I have is a howling cat — but I’m grateful for her, too.

Our Dixie wasn’t a howler, but she did like to poke us with a paw to wake us up in the mornings. 🙂

We have a neighborhood rooster that likes to welcome the day, which is one of the benefits of country living. –Curt

Glad you appreciate it Curt. In some places it’s illegal to keep a rooster.
