Update, it's actually not my imagination. Air and water quality are rapidly dramatically improving. It sure has seemed like birds are losing their minds, chirping at midnight wtf.  San Francisco has a nearly 40% drop in smog as of today. So I guess the birds DO care about pandemics, i.e. they feel like I left a week or so ago (woohoo!)..

I wonder of butterflies will rebound 🤔

Bonus: nature cams
