As Long As I'm Singing ...
“As
long as I’m singin’
Then
the world’s all right
And
everything’s swingin’
Long
as I’m singin’ my song
Ummmm…makin’
music
Is
more to me than a pleasure
'cause
me and music
We
go together like notes in a measure
Long
as I’m singin’
Then
the world’s all right
And
everything’s swingin’
Long
as I’m singin’ my…
Long
as I’m singin’ my …
Long
as I’m singin’ my song.”
~ “As Long
As I’m Singing”
~written & recorded by
the wonderful Bobby Darin
~ 1964
A
red-winged black bird sings its song on an early June evening at the Lehigh Gap in
Slatington, Pennsylvania in the shadow of the Kittatinny Ridge, also called Blue
Mountain.
The
Lehigh Gap is a crossroads where the Lehigh Gap Nature Center’s trails connect
two historic trails – the Appalachian Trail and the Delaware and Lehigh
Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail).
The
Appalachian Trail, a foot path, follows the ridge on both sides of the Lehigh
Gap, running 1,245 miles south to Georgia and 930 miles north to Maine. Running
from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and
Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.

Shimmer Of Blue ...
“Some
birds are not meant to be caged, that’s all. Their feathers are too bright,
their songs too sweet and wild …”
~ Stephen King
~ born 1947
A
beautiful tree swallow – known for its iridescent blue-green color upper parts
– comes out of of its nesting box in early June at Lehigh Parkway, Allentown,
Pennsylvania.
While there are young or eggs in
the nest, adult tree swallows frequently dive bomb intruders, including curious
humans, and attempt to drive them from the area – I personally know this to be
true, and so does my camera!
