Hi there
I have taken a few pictures since Sunday past, and decided to divide them in groups to go with the subject at hand.
Our local Mute Swans in Bedford. What an beautiful bird and something we never tire of. Their grace, their good looks and their disposition tells us they are survivors after all.
The Male Cobs are becoming a little more aggressive now {breeding time} so there are a lot more fluffing up of the wing feathers,
Some pictures to share with everyone here..enjoy.
some more pictures
The Swans wanted all my attention. I talked to them and that seemed to encourage thme to get close to me.
The last year cynets look in good order standing on the grass, and they all stood together for a good old preening session
Regards
Kathy and Dave

Hi LittleOwl
Beautiful picture
It is although the Swan is on the look out for his mate.
Swans are so beautiful and i can see why Royalty did take them as a valued cause any day
Beautiful photos every one of them, there's just something about swans especially in water that just makes you stand and stare at them. Calming almost.
