Lake Of The Lilies

The Swans are back at Lake of the Lilies and they were not camera shy when I visited!
In fact, it seemed to me like this one was posing for my pictures.






As I turned to leave...
this Swan turned it's head and flicked the water...

and decided to play hard to get...

I'm so happy they are back!

This is a very beautiful bird, not native to North America, however. They were brought to North America by early immigrants. It is a Mute Swan, and in Britain is called the Royal Swan, with all birds traditionally belonging to the Crown.

Oh my sweet friend, these photos of the Swan are breathtaking. I still think you should publish a book of your bird photos; they are spectacular.
Sending happy thoughts and hugs your way!

A white swan against the bright blue background of the water always looks so elegantly beautiful, doesn't it.
