Holy COW Bulldog! Unless I am dreadfully mistaken....that is a Whooper Swan! Have only heard of them. They are one of the largest and heaviest of flying birds! Awesome! Great capture! Fav!

[Nat]

Yay!!!! I could tell he was going to win. Better style than the other one.

[Mike]

He looks in a bit of a flap. You get too close?

[📸 Bulldog 📷]

@natr - How? How could you tell which one it was - I can guarantee that this swan is one of the two in the previous pic.

@caddick -- He was quite a way away. This was full zoom and then cropped.

[Nat]

@gphelps5 it's all in the tail Mr Bulldog

[Cally]

Nice swan. Like the capture with the wings out.
