The Angry Cow
Having no window coverings (a major source of anxiety pre-move) turns out to be moot when the only living things outside at night are cows. And speaking of the cows next door, one of them has some sort of anger issue. She brays at regular intervals; loudly enough that I can hear her six acres away. She sounds like an insistent donkey.
It still amazes me how dark the real outside is... as opposed to the unreal outside where headlights, streetlights, floodlights and signage illuminate everything in sight. It's a wonder that early American settlers ever bothered to leave their own backyards for the West with so much dark nothingness out there.
