I’m glad it makes you happy!
You are a lot like me, also.
I have a lot of acres and a couple of big fields I mow and an extensive garden (although this time of year, the only thing I still pick is okra and tomatoes).
I also have lots of birds on my property. I even got some “bionic ears” to hear and record them better to identify them. So I’ll go out and just sit in the fields or woods and try to find which bird is singing.
Did you know this time of year bird song fades away very quickly as breeding season comes to a close? I’m in Alabama, so that happens at a slower pace, but it is a lot quieter this morning than it was a couple of months ago.
I also like to go out at night and watch the stars.
I got a pretty good view from my back field when it’s dark. I notice Cygnus getting higher and higher as full on Summer arrives. Did see the comet Newsome a few times but it’s pretty faint for my old eyes.

I do this, too! Don’t know much about what I’m looking at, but we’re away from the city and get a pretty ‘dark’ sky, so viewing is good. My goal is to put a bench/seat out at the garden for more comfortable viewing & I want to add a small fire pit for cooler weather, too.
The birds singing around here has been incredible. Our place has lots of good habitat & food so it’s just loaded with birds of all kinds. I even had a Red-headed woodpecker coming every day to the feeders - I can’t tell you the last time I saw a red-headed woodpecker until this year.
Picked my first tomatoes yesterday - we got a late start when cold weather got the first ones I planted. I have bell peppers & jalapenos doing well. This year, I’ve focused more on flowers than garden produce - I grow the veggies for my folks & they can only eat so much. The neighbors will be getting some tomatoes, peppers & sunflowers this afternoon.
Property values will go up in rural areas, when it is not safe to live in the Democrat Party run cities. Lunatic Biden wants to change zoning laws in the suburbs and rural areas to promote diversity?
