Disturbing the peace

I've been taking the opportunity this morning to play catch up. To deal with all those letters and emails and phone calls that required a response. Thankfully, the gentle drizzle has provided a calm, quiet morning. I can just hear the birds singing but at a distance. Yesterday, the birds were flocking onto the lawn and kicking up such a racket. Not sure what the attraction was. Some of them didn't even bother flying off when I went out to take a picture.
Though I love the sun, there is something about the summer rain that brings healing and peace. Giving thanks for that today.
