One night I was putting my chickens away, locking them up so they would not get attacked. I was alone, waiting for my other sibling to get out there with a flashlight so we could look for eggs together. I was locking all the little doors on the coop when I heard a soft whistle to the left. This wasn't rare, since we have houses surrounding ours, but when I looked away from the direction where I had heard it, it whistled again. I again, just shrugged it off, thinking that it was someone just calling their dog home. But then the third time I looked away, it whooshed up to my ear, making it seem like someone was right there in my ear, whistling. I quickly spun my head to the left, where I had heard it, but there was nothing there.
I glanced warily around, but couldn't see anything that could have done that. Finally, my sibling came out and we hurriedly checked for the eggs, and went back into the house. I told them and they just seemed creeped out, but also kind of joyful at my obvious discomfort. I don't really know if it was a boy trying to catch my attention and the wind caught it or what. We are surrounded by mountains so it could have just echoed, but I am not sure. It really could have been anything, but I was pretty creeped out in the moment. So... Maybe it was just an echo. It was coming from a kind of put off, creepy, rundown place though. Well, nothing else like that has happened to me since. I want to say it was around a year ago, maybe more, maybe less. Now, I tell this story as a form of enjoyment for my friends, but at the time, it was anything but that.
