Blue Skies Smiling At Me ...

“Blue skies smiling at me

Nothing but blue skies do I see …”

           ~ “Blue Skies”

        ~popular song written by Irving Berlin 

                   (1888-1989) in 1926

A beautiful blue jay, also called a jaybird, sees nothing but blue skies along the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail) near the East Penn Township Trailhead in Bowmanstown, Pennsylvania on a gorgeous early July evening.

Running from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
