“Into each life some rain must fall.”
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
~ 1807-1882
I spotted this Great Blue Heron, looking amazingly small standing in the Jordan Creek at Wehr’s Dam, as an early evening rain falls on June 21, 2021 – the first full day of summer – at Covered Bridge Park, Orefield, Pennsylvania.
The boardwalk of the Jordan Creek Greenway can be seen behind the dam.
The waters of the Jordan Creek spill over the dam to then flow beneath Wehr’s Covered Bridge.
The dam, built in 1904, is next to Wehr’s Covered Bridge, which dates back to 1841.
