It sounded like someone was bouncing a basketball but the nearest person was 75 miles away. Finally I stalked the noise and found the grouse ! Years ago a friend told me she heard that sound off in the woods. She was wondering why someone was trying to start their generator half the day and it not starting up. Grouse are difficult to sneak up on . So cool to find one and enjoy their show. http://www.illustrationsinmotion.com/index.html

On a similar subject, has anyone else ever noticed what I would describe as a "60 cycle hum" while in or near the arctic? I have noticed that too but only in the winter. It's as though silence actually makes a noise It’s tinnitus. Eh...wot?
