How to wake up correctly every day
If you’re not screaming since the early morning, what’s the point?
Whenever I think I managed to wake up early, I look around and see that birds are already out and about. The sun is barely up, and they’re up already.
Maybe it’s because they’re excited to see what their day will bring. Maybe it’s because they know that anything can happen when the sun is up and you have to face life head-on again. Maybe it’s because a calm and quiet morning is the best entourage to start your day with a scream.
Wake up like a redshank
I’ve spent last week waking up the earliest I could, putting on the warmest clothes I had packed, and going out to the marshes to observe some feathery friends.
The most inspiring behavior I found in birds I met then was in redshanks.
The common redshank is a small wading bird that lives in marshes, ponds, and lakes. It has a black head, breast, and back with a white stripe down the middle of its belly, black wings, and tail.
