Spooky!
I heard the butler's call buzzer go off for a short half-buzz earlier today where I am staying. The panel indicated it was the front door, so I went out and sure enough, it was the UPS delivery man, he buzzed and was already in his truck pulling off, but then, about an hour later, I heard the same half buzzer sound on the system. The main bedroom indicator has had the arrow pointing there since MrP and I were here together and I jokingly buzzed him to bring up my coffee in the morning. I must figure out how to clear that arrow. The only other activated arrow pointed to the front door. When I looked, there was no one there. I checked the side door, no one there. I went upstairs with trepidation and looked around, no lurkers up there.
Later, I heard a mocking bird imitating the sound of the buzzer . . . .

Re: Spooky!
Me too,
watched it again after posting that link. The film has just ended.
I still think the film should have included a scene where someone shoots a mocking bird.
I bet they taste like chicken.
Doesn't everything?

Re: Spooky!
That is funny MsP. Probably wasn't so funny at the time thought. We have a huge number of mocking birds this year. They don't seem as vicious as in the past and even bring there babies into the year for bird lessons. (LOL) They are used to our neighborhood I guess, and know we won't hurt them.
