You are correct about the swan and it looks like it knows it. Seems to be admiring itself. Appears to like being center of attention. Good post.

The swan seems to be looking into your camara! It is indeed a beautiful bird and is enhanced by your talented shutter. The reflection in the water is outstanding.

Darn...got here too late, but I will tell you that I put it in my bird fave file..I can never decide if they're birds or animals. They're so graceful, but you've already read all this before..Thanks for the upload, Patti!

Since you already wrote it in the title, I do not really know what else to say. The title is the pure truth. Great work.

This is a gorgous creature and you've presented it beautifully. By the look in it's eye I don't think it trusts your motives very much!

That has got to be one of the better captures detail wise that I have seen of a goose. Deserves way more than it got.
