Trying to catch the sunrise

It has been so misty and cold in the mornings it is hard to see the sunrise these days.  Yesterday I decided that I would get a glimpse of the sunrise and failed yet again. It was very cold and misty that you could hardly see a couple of feet away from where you stood.

I thought that the mist would clear up fast and decided that I would take my 5 km walk around the lake. The sun never really came out until 8 in the morning and by then it was pretty high in the sky.  However I did catch this beautiful reflection of the sun in the lake just as I was finishing my walk.

I got to see some drongos, kingfishers, the ever present parrots, eagles, barbets and the tiny sunbirds tweeting their hearts out. I enjoyed my morning walk listening to the music of the birds, the trees and the water.

I had my breakfast in a lovely little cafe nearby and headed home to escape the harsh heat of the sun. The change in temperatures between 7-9 in the mornings is drastic. The weekend gone by was amazing as I was finally able to take my long walks.
