Mindful, Day 250, Sounds of Summer Evening

Late this afternoon I am sitting on the screen porch enjoying the sun inching down but mostly listening to all the sounds of late summer. A few small birds, especially the goldfinches twittering about, the low, steady hum of tree crickets, someone playing music over on the next street, the tree leaves waving in the breeze, traffic sounds undulating up and down.  I love the tree cricket sound - that constant, steady layer of sound feels like it just surrounds me as I sit here. Calming and relaxing. I will enjoy it while I can!
