LARK OR OWL?

It is 6:15 in the morning. I have fed the dogs, had my latte and am having my morning contemplative time.The dogs are all curled up in sleep balls around me. I was thinking about some things in my life which led me to my topic. I am obviously a lark. I love the mornings, I want to watch the sun come up and wonder at the awakening earth. I love the first tentative peeps of the birds, slowly building to the full sounds of the day. At some point there, the sounds of the birds become lost in the sounds of that day....are they still "talking", or do the other sounds still the voices of happiness and greeting? I have to be careful not to be up "putting myself together" too early, or I am all ready with no place to go! Obviously, the majority of the world is something between a lark and an owl. I wonder what that would be. Hmmmm, a cow bird? Just kidding. Probably pigeons...hehe.

I love the morning too! Even when I've been up several times a night and feel like I could sleep in, I still love being up in the morning. I think Jameson is a lark too, so I have some company in the morning!

I also love mornings! I get to see the sun rise from my bed. I, however, am a robin thankful to have been woken up by the larks (who have been up for two hours) at 6:00am. Do robins stay up late?
