Is there an animal sound you really love, or one that drives you mad?

B Natural answer

Usually I enjoy birds singing in the morning, especially when I'm waking up and the day feels fresh. I also like a horse snorting because it sounds funny and harmless. But one sound that drives me mad is loud geese honking near water. It feels sharp and constant, and I can't focus when they stay nearby.
