He rocks in the tree tops all day long

Hoppin’ and a-boppin’ and a-singing his song

Rockin’ robin (tweet, tweedle-lee-dee) …”

A pair of precious American Robin nestlings in a treetop await their mother’s return with supper on a beautiful late July evening at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Someday these little nestlings will sing the song God made for the robins to sing … and sing beautifully!

The barn swallow is a bird of open country that normally uses man-made structures to breed. It builds a cup nest from mud pellets in barns or similar structures.
