Early Mornings

I usually start work at 7.30 a.m and because I like to arrive early and see what needs doing before my shift starts I usually leave home to walk to work at 5.30 a.m. I love that time in the morning it's so peaceful and since we put the clocks forward an hour it's also dark. If I'm lucky I will see what I think of as magical sights. By this I mean seeing a hedgehog or a fox. More often than not it's usually cats. This morning as I went out of my front gate about 10 feet in front of me there was a fox watching me I started to move it ran and as I went round the corner to leave my street I saw it again still watching me then it ran away and I didn't see it again. When I get closer to work I sometimes see mice they run and hide as well. Mice don't bother me as I used to keep pet rats and to my way of thinking mice are just a smaller version of them. Early mornings are definately my favourite time of the day no matter what the weather.
