Many people cannot fathom how I can be a morning person.
When I stepped out of my house this morning to walk to the gym, the sun was just starting to rise… hadn’t peeked over the horizon, but light was coming up. Basically, it was light enough to see, but not enough to legally hunt deer. 😉
I look up and see about a dozen Mexican Free-tailed bats flying around. Usually we might see only one or two, so seeing this many was quite a treat. I called back into the house to have everyone come out and watch. As I continued my walk to the gym, obviously the bats were all around the greater neighborhood as I was able to still see them feeding.
Then I hear one of my favorite morning sounds: the Black-bellied whistling duck. There were 8 flying in formation, circling around the greater neighborhood. They’re around all the time so they’re nesting somewhere nearby.
Otherwise, the morning was unusually quiet. No one else out jogging. Only a couple of cars drove by.
Just quiet.
Peaceful.
Only the sounds of nature.
Puts a contented smile on your face.
That’s one reason I love mornings.

I will admit to enjoying sitting on my front porch admiring the peace and quiet and animals, but that doesn’t make me a morning person. I function badly, if at all, that time of day and much prefer the peace and quiet of midnight rather than daybreak
To each. 🙂
I think what I also like is that most people are not morning people, so that fits in well with my misanthropy. 😉 I mean, the best time for motorcycle riding is always early Sunday morning, because almost no one is out.
Early morning – it’s the coldest it will be all day!
Another good reason!
Of course these days… 80º is about as cold as it’ll get. *sigh* 🙂
Hey, I get to enjoy the mornings too…
Listening to all the birds sing their wake up song, watching the sun rise…
of course, thats when I get to go home and go to bed. 😉
