What a piece of work that guy was. The perfect proof that as attractive as someone may be, their personality could turn them ugly; this proves to be true for animals as well! His plumage was beautiful but I'm sorry to say this was one selfish, mean-spirited swan. You wanna play it that way, bird? Well let me post this shot of your posterior.
Fantastic picture. I love it. Fav.
Looks like you witnessed the interesting and strong territorial behaviour of the mute swans. Having the wings up in a position like in your picture means *back off* (for others swans and humans).
@mona65 thank you very kindly Mona, it's interesting you knew immediately he wanted everyone around him to back off! :) @kali66 thanks so much Kali :) @jantan thanks very much Jan, that's very kind of you to say! @kategoring ha ha yes he does! Thank you Kate... @shepherdmanswife thanks so very much!! I am humbled :) @annied thank you Annie! :)
