Territorial Swan

I've not been around for a while, I've been very disillusioned by the whole thing , so please be gentle with me, I know these pics are brilliant, but I quite like them

The male Swan was particularly mardy to the intruders on his pond , well it is that time of year I guess

Re: Territorial Swan

I am beginning to prefer photos of birds landing on water or taking off from same, as in picture 2. Don't get me wrong there is nothing I don't like about bird pictures, its just that I have started to like to see them doing something instead of standing around. Or sitting on water come to that.
