Dec 30 2011 Morning at Escamaquito

Mornings are busy times around the house when the sun comes up about 5. I wake up just enough to register the rooster, Isabella the donkey, the howler monkeys, and all the various bird all greeting the morning. I then roll over and try to get a few more hours sleep before it gets too hot an muggy to sleep any more. This morning is cloudy and there is a nice breeze on the porch outside my room. I came out to listen to the birds, and a flock of about a dozen wood storks flew over.
These are the view from my room and Isabella the donkey.
