Check

I have wanted a wild swan for my project for a long time and thanks to @shesnapped that is another item off my wishlist. I have seen swans before just not in the wild.

I'm so glad you were able to check this off your lust. It is beautiful.

Gosh, I cannot imagine not seeing swans in the wild, I see them so often here, on the sea in the harbour or on rivers or in fields.

Love how you got the bit of weed from thr beak.

Very sharp shot. I was lucky enough to stand underneath a flock of about 20 swans when they flew overhead some years ago. The noise the beating wings made was magical.

Great with the grass hanging out of the beak

@craftymeg @joansmor He’s definitely an adult. Not sure why he didn’t head back north with all the others...
