The swan pair was returned to the little pond near me on April 1st. The nesting area is set up so we'll await the cygnets later this spring. This is the female - I posted the male and last year's cygnets previously.

Don't we know the male swans, we poor SAM & even poorer SAAB ?!
We had a close encounter with one in April 2006. Savage brute it was! LOL
Attacked us flying/swimming in half upright position across one little lake only because his wife was sitting in the nest - 50 metres away !
This girl looks peaceful enough though :)
Pretty and shy.

A nice image, Kathy. Can't believe Tick missed the water going uphill, and you as well. I did the same thing with a Duck picture awhile back. :o)

Swimming uphill like that must be tiring. A nice capture of this lovely swan, Sandi. Good colours in the photo.
