Splishing and splashing - there was a party going on

@kali66 asked me to make photos to match my favorite music, or have a musical theme in some way, suggesting I might want to think about rhythm.
Well this reminded me of an old song, Splish Splash - and there was certainly a rhythm to their dance.
It may not be my favourite music but it kind of suited their moves.

"There was a-splishin' and a-splashin'
Reelin' with the feelin'
Movin' and a-groovin'
Rockin' and a-rollin', yeah, yeah"
@kali66 - just a fun first attempt but I am sure I can do better - it seemed s shame to not use this shot.

i thought you were going to say swan lake! they look rather balletic

They do look like they are enjoying themselves.

These swans must be piebald - not totally black! Great capture and I know that song so well!

@kali66 that too😜 I must be more of a rock & roll party gal than a ballerina.

@maggiemae They are black but have white under their wings which is not that obvious until they 'dance' or fly. Lol. The words of the song played in my mind for ages after posting this.

A cool well timed capture suits song title well

Oh yeah! They suit that exactly. How wonderful to have them to watch and photograph.

@robz Yes I am very lucky to live in this beautiful region. Always something in nature to photograph.

Great moment to capture! I love how the birds' wings look, and it gives a great sense of movement.

Liana, I have enjoyed looking through some of your beautiful photos of your majestic area. For your get pushed challenge create an interior capture in black and white, using natural light.

@lynbonn teehee - we must be in sync. I just this minute set your challenge - also about light -be it sunrise light or candlelight!
