Ducks & Swans
A couple of birdie shots
Those last three were brave shots as I'm actually quite scared of swans

Great way to start with ducks and swans, what does make a good photo with just the ducks as subjects is trying to get them landing/taking off on water.
To give you some idea, the above which amuses me is the intense look on the duck concentrating on landing

Great pics, I love water birds of all sort, well any bird in fact, I love the first Duck and last Swan shot, and they're nothing to be scared of 
Oh no they're not 
, they're gorgeous, beautiful, elegant birds, but they will defend their young, as I found out earlier

Thanks for the comments, I don't think swans are evil but I am still scared of them - and their disgusting LICE! (I'm a vet nurse, I know these things LOL)
