Just before the weekend I was bemoaning in a Friday bugbear the lack of silence in the English countryside, and you may recall I mentioned how it is much easier to find in the hills in the Algarve. Here’s an example of noise in the hills;

A location with sounds under 40 decibels for an hour or more are so difficult to find in many parts of the world that there’s even a battle to save these quiet spaces. So this is my odd square today; something that doesn’t happen often!

This post, well a still of this view, will be my desktop for February as today is Clare’s Share Your Desktop. What’s your desktop view for the month ahead?

    1. Hiya me again, you had pinged it perfectly. Just found it 🙂 the problem was me!! I’m way way behind on approvals because was out all of yesterday afternoon, and then had a 2 hour meeting via Zoom in the evening when I got back. So never had a chance to read all the comments and approve all the pingbacks. Sorry!

  1. Ooh, lovely! My daily dose of a hundred decibels really puts me in awe of you there, Becky.
    At least I can get to the Lake when I can, where sometimes it can be a lot quieter.

      1. It’s where I live, Becky… and I’m only whining! I have a tantrum-throwing neighbour who loves slamming doors, pounding on walls and screaming at all hours, and then plays loud music. It’s probably not a hundred decibels, but feels like it! People, eh?! 🙄
