You will see the fox trotting home, the hare in the corn washing her face; and the birds at song. The hour of dawn is a shift change, when the nocturnal things begin their sleep, the diurnal ones start awakening.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe greatest miracle of dawn in the modern age?
