Jalopy door closing: "Ka-runch" Limousine door closing: "Whoomp" Cash register operating: "Ka Ching" Do you agree?..... Let's hear yours! Hal
My husband's absent-minded whistling as he works on something. The cooing of the mourning doves that visit our patio each day. Televised football game crowd noise, that I won't be hearing again this year. The distinctive click of my dad's Zippo lighter. (That one is just a memory now. )
Coffee pot "gurgle." Refrigerator "hummmmm." Toilet "flushhhhhhhh." Mailbox door "creak." Patio door "sliiiiide." Couch "creak." Keys "jingle." Zipper "zip!" McDonald's fryer "sizzle."
Insects at night in late summer. I can't describe in words. PLAY SOUND Btw, I think these are mostly katydids, not locusts.
I worked with a guy here in Virginia who relocated from California. They don't have katydids out his way. "The trees are talking to me!" Regarding bullfrogs...I'm surrounded by them. I drive down my right-of-way at night and hear them on both sides of me. Beaver have dammed up a small stream on a far corner of my property and I hear the frogs off in the distance. It makes me smile...the sound of a healthy ecosystem.
Flat tire - flap, flap, flap Dove's morning call - oowe, oo oo oowe ooo Cats fighting - yeeow!! yeeow, skkk, skkk!!!

It would have been helpful if you had put your instructions in the first post so we'd have had a clue what you wanted. "Oink", said the pig.
I remember that one, Bobby...it was when the Freudian jokes were making the rounds in the 60's. Another one was: "If a tree fell in the Forest and nobody was around to hear it...would it make a noise?" Hal
