Default CLICKING sounds in the rear? Pleeease tell me this is normal!

Ok gentlemen,
I notice this when it is quiet and the windows are down. I hear a click, I am assuming its the rear differential engaging when i shift from park to reverse and then to drive. I also notice this happening when i take off from a stop, especially when its from a slightuphill. When its quiet enough with the windows down i can hearthe click when it shifts from 1st to 2nd. Now, it doesn't have a hesitant jerk or anything, the acceleration still feels smooth. I am assuming its the rear differential "sticking" but I hope this is normal. Are you guys experiencing this the same as me. I am wondering if I should take it in or not... Let me know pleeeeeas!!!!

I just checked my car. I didn't hear anything of what you're describing.
