Snow Cardinal ...

“Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark.”

    ~ Rabindranath Tagore

     ~ 1861 ~ 1941

 

A beautiful male North American Cardinal brings a pop of red to an early March snowfall on a beautiful late winter afternoon at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Treetop Tweeters ...

“Tweedle-lee-dee-dee-dee, tweedle-lee-dee dee

Tweedle-lee-dee-dee-dee, tweedle-lee-dee dee

Tweedle-lee-dee-dee-dee, tweedle-lee-dee dee

Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet

 

He rocks in the tree tops all day long

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

All the little birds on Jaybird Street

Love to hear the robin go tweet, tweet, tweet

 

Rockin’ robin (tweet, tweet, tweet)

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

                     ~ “Rockin’ Robin”

          ~written by Leon Rene under the    pseudonym Jimmie Thomas

                  ~ recorded by Bobby Day ~

                                     ~ 1958

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!

Young Blue Jay's June Morning ...

“I would like to paint the way a bird sings.”

     ~ Claude Monet

On the cusp of summer, a beautiful young blue jay has it made in the shade and savors a lovely late spring morning in mid-June at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
