Every morning here on "the island" I wait for the sun to start it's journey and then I go for an hour long walk. This is one of my favorite parts of my walk, the perfect stillness of the lagoon reflecting the path ahead of me.
My January walks began around 7:20 AM but as the sun began to rise earlier, I was beginning my walks around 6:20 AM. I love the peace and quiet and the freshness of the world at that hour. I would be sitting at my computer and when the birds began to sing I knew it was time to get moving.
Then along came Daylight Saving Time. What a whiplash that turned out to be. Back to the dark ages.
But birds don't do Daylight Saving Time...they appear to have stayed on Standard Time. They're merrily singing away IN THE DARK each morning, apparently oblivious to the fact that the sun is not yet up.
Which just goes to show you that we should just leave some things well enough alone.

I would love to walk in that pretty place. It is still so brown and dry here. That is funny about birds singing in the dark. lol
Morning walks...you do so well, they're so refreshing.
