What can be better than walking around the lake early in the
morning and watching birds...The birds that have just woken up and
started their day?
And even if you don’t find many birds… you may still find beautiful
views ;). Maybe you’ll catch the sun the moment it rises above the
horizon and lights everything with gorgeous color.
That morning, I found a lot of gulls wandering in the shallow
waters of Belmar Lake. Most of them stayed in small groups, quietly
going about their business.
Well… mornings bring some challenges too. The light isn’t always ideal, and even geese fly too fast to capture them properly
:)
But look at this sky! Isn't it beautiful?
Morning birds are mostly slow... They simply stay in the middle of the lake and... wait for something...
Gulls are motionless too, though they are definitely much noisier than others :)
Walking around the lake was peaceful and calm. There were very few
people, and I truly enjoyed this quiet time alone with nature and birds.
These two geese appeared out of nowhere and landed loudly with a
huge splash, even sending a few gulls into the air (which isn’t an easy
task ;) )
While I walked around the lake, the sun got higher and the sky
color changed... The birds became more active and... I figured out that
it was a signal for me to move along to my next destination.
