I have had a few opportunities to experience the Kesling Wetland at sunrise. In my opinion I think the wetland should be experienced at sunrise and sunset everyday because a whole new life wakes up and the colors and sight are absolutely gorgeous! The birds start to spread their cheer by chirping and leaving their nests to spread their wings. There is a Great Blue Herron that is often seen on the edge of the wetland by the farm side and when it is disturbed you will see it spread it's massive wings and fly to the other side of the wetland. Lately it has been a routine to see the Great Blue fly over the wetland as the sun rises.
Another reason to experience the wetland during sunrise is because since it has been getting colder there is often fog that hovers over the water. The fog adds another allusion to the scene that is being observed. Fog seems the help the wildlife in the morning in the sense that it is adding the layer to help them hide and be mysterious. Sometimes I don't even notice the wood and mallard ducks that swim in the wetland because the fog layer makes them seem hidden. The kill deer birds swoop in and out of the fog layer, projecting their cry.
