Looks like he's staring you right in the face, Jim. A fine closeup of this very lovely bird. I like the green leaves reflections caught up in the moving water too.
This is what happens when I show up late. Everyone has already used the best trumpet jokes. As with all of your zoo shots, this one's a beauty. We have a zoo here in Atascadero, but there are really almost no animals. It's the only zoo in the county. And I'm not going to drive five hours to get to the Griffith Park Zoo in L.A. I'm wondering why you didn't post this in portrait mode. That green slimy water background in a bit unnerving. Nice shot of the swan though. He's giving you the hairy eyeball.
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest, where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art. ~Rumi~
Marvellous close up of this fine speciamen pal..
