My husband used to work an early shift, so he was up early, around 4:00 AM, playing on the computer.
Insert dramatic reinactment:
Out of total silence comes the sound of a woman screaming in "mortal terror", under the raised deck, right next to the wall of our house!
My husband just about fell out his chair. . .scared the crapo out of him. Somebody is in terrible trouble! A second later it registered that it sounded kind of fake. . .too emotionless. If that makes sense. There was a strange breathy quality to it too, he said.
It was then that he knew he had heard his first puma booma.
I slept through the whole thing.
But we've heard them since, yowling at night. I love it and think it's coolio that they're so near.
