I can't believe it has already been 2 weeks since we're back home from Galicia. We went back from the roar of the ocean to the soft whisper of the Oise river, which isn't so bad either.
On a sunny afternoon a few weeks ago, we were relaxing under the fig tree in the garden of our little house. I was reading my favorite magazine ( The Good Life ) when we heard this funny sound. At first we thought there was someone asleep snoring very loudly.
An hour later my husband did a little investigation: "It's a cicada". Hmmm, not completely convinced we listened some more & found two little green buttons in the grass. Mole chasers! Have you ever heard any? No? Then listen carefully:
No, never heard or seen any! I'm really wondering now: what is so attractive in this sound if your are a mole…..?
It seems they think it's an irritating sound and move on to more quiet places around…
Yumm those figs look good! Couldn't hear it though, the video had some problem loading!
The figs were delicious! Hmmm! Sorry that you couldn't view the video: maybe try the direct link: https://vimeo.com/50861834
