It's 5:15am in Utah and the birds are going CRAZY outside. I love it - they are so loud - robins, mostly, I think - and our rooster. That darn rooster is crowing at the SETTING MOON. The sun's not even up yet. But the birds are wonderful.
Good morning, y'all!!!
XOXO, Libbie

That phrase "up with the chickens" reminds me of my grandma. She liked to sleep in, and when I would stay overnight with g'ma & g'pa she'd always accuse me of being "up with the chickens"!

Oh me too! I love to go outside in the early morning and listen to the birds, and the rooster next door challenging the others down the street, lol ! One of my long-time childhood friends can't understand why the sound of a rooster crowing anytime day or night doesn't bother me, but I remind her that considering where I used to live, I would much rather hear the sounds of birds and roosters, rather than neighbors fighting and carrying on 24/7, haha!
Hugs..

I woke up at 4:30 this morning. Nora was still sleeping so I had to get up and use my breast pump for a few minutes so I could go back to sleep. Right now it is almost 10am and she has yet to wake up and the birds are singing beautifully outside my window. I love birdsong. It always is in my mental sound backdrop of summer memories!

How could anyone NOT like the birdsongs at first light? It alone is worth getting up early for. I love it so much, that I am currently working on building a medicinal herb garden with a sitting area that I have access to from my bedroom. All just so I can take my tea outside in my jammies and listen to those wonderful songs.
