Default Sanyo Mini-split compressor?

At 7 AMish, that's the first thing that popped into my head,
when my wife woke me, with "What's that buzzing sound"?

I almost said, "That was me, I WAS snoring, sound asleep"!
She described the sound as an intermittent vibration that seemed
to be coming from the back wall of the house.

Since the Den Sanyo has a jury-rigged snow roof, Jury rig - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that leans on the back wall,
I started thinking 'That Sanyo is vibrating the back wall of the house via the snow roof'..
The worse case has occurred, 'NO! not the compressor'! I had to run in and shut off the Sanyo!

But, then she says, "There it is again"! Oh no, I shut down Sanyo #1 too!
Run down to the basement and the A7 is on standby...???..

Humm.. Maybe the resonating sound I finally heard is coming from outdoors?
Burglars? Breaking in, using a Saws-All?

Then, I get out on the front walk. It can't be that squirrel, can it?
Then, I remembered a time decades ago, when I heard that very same sound..
Yes, but what caused it? Then, I heard it! "BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"!
From the sky? Nope, from the TV antenna! Not the same bird,
but maybe an ancestor of the very same Albatross Woodpecker
that used to wake us at 6:30 to 7AM, back in the 1980s..
Buzzing away on my 2M ham antenna..

Yeppers, I looked up and saw the little jerk on my TV antenna!
Had to go get the camera, so folks wouldn't think I made this story up!



Look how sharp that beak is!

Well, I think the winter is over!!
