This breeding swan I spotted in Almere. With her beak she was arranging the things in her nest around her.
At another place these proud parents were showing their seven! little ones.
Temperatures have suddenly raised to 22 degrees C (71.6 F) But for only two days, then we will go back to 15 C again (59F).
Nature at its best.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenFamilies of swans; how lucky you are to see and photograph these beautiful creatures!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI did a post on Canadian Geese, which I think you might like - it is dated 8/4/11, on my blog if you go to my sidebar for past posts. These are beautiful photos - what a wonderful capture for you. They truly are magnificent creatures. Just lovely, thank you for sharing.

Swans are a very majestic bird. It's surprising that they breed right among the people.
