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.

  1. The sun is ever obliging when it comes to greeting me every single day. Birds visit us too as they have everything they need – fun, food and frolicking in the bird bath.

    Glad your walk was nice meeting all those chirping birds.
