@Forest Cat It's at the seaside, so mainly sea birds (seagulls and others), and dogs on walks.

Yes that too. Armchair psychology mode: I think people are more depressed in cities because the brain sees the environment is infertile and shouldnt sustain life. Probably a load of old hogwash though!

There is a degree of de-personalisation in large cities.
Often a lack of connectedness, ironically.
It suits me quite well, however. :cool:

I like being back in a small town again. Shame there is a demographic dip in people my age. Its mostly young and old.
