Regretfully, virtually impossible, people and their infernal machines are
everywhere....

I'm sure you noticed the airplane in the background all through that crow
recording, there is also some car traffic noises as well. The local
skydiving operation and grass field airport is about 2 1/2 miles north of
here and the main commuter airport is 4 miles east and with two major roads=

running out the cape, one on the south side, one on the north side, its
noise everywhere...
And then to the west about 8 miles away is Camp Edwards, Otis AFB which is=

also Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod....  I could go on about the boating=

harbors and school buildings and shopping malls with huge air conditioning=

plants on the roof etc. etc. however you get the idea I'm sure. Now that we=

have good major highways coming to the Cape, much of the Cape is a bedroom=

community for the City of Boston now days and people are always going
somewhere by car, truck or airplane.  And yet for all that, I just came in=

from standing in the end of my driveway listening to a pack of Coyotes
running and yapping somewhere between here and the village...  And as I
listened, three cars came barreling by...

The Cape is simply not a place to get away from noise...
