Those are all probably just the underground shock. A seismograph will detect that, but the human senses won't. But usually where there is a small one there is a big one lurking around. I remember learning about an earthquake in CA many years ago that actually made the Mississippi river go backwards!

Actually it is amazing what the human senses can detect, but we ignore.

During the summer months, I will have trouble sleeping at times,
so I sit up and listen to all the little bugs outside.
At times, all the little critters will just stop and go silent,
at that point I will be extremely quit myself and listen,
what I hear and feel is a low rumble like thunder in the distance.
I have checked the weather and no storms, so the only thing it could be is an Earth tremor.
I live in Reading, Pa, which is situated atop the convergence of three very
old fault lines.

You are very right. Human senses are very.....sensitive. I live near a fault line too. I ought to try that some time.
