On edge

There really is no better time of the day than day break. No really. I like my sleep, my family likes to sleep but the enjoyment of being completely alone, in almost darkness is unparalleled. No dog walkers. No joggers (well sometimes the odd ball comes running past at 6am in his day-glo orange) . Just you and your quarry and the singing birds. So quiet it is, that even from a distance your quarry can here the clicking of your camera shutter. Puts them on edge, which in turn puts you on edge because the next click could be your last.
