Tea time is over

Tundra Swans taking their leave from Cheadle Marsh at William Findlay Wildlife Refuge today. I was using my old (40+) Vivitar 80-200mm.

Absolutely stunning black and white!

Nicely misty. By the way, for some reason all of my photos from our day that were fine yesterday are unopenable/ damaged today. Argh

[LManning (Laura)]

Beautiful! Love the timing, the POV, the mist.

[Joanne Diochon]

Are they just passing through or will they winter there?

[Shutterbug]

Terrific shot of the birds in so many different poses.

[Milanie]

Great shot of all the activity

@milaniet @shutterbug49 @gardencat @ljmanning @marlboromaam

Thank you all so much. I think that most just winter there. There are signs that let people know that the trails are closed until March 31st to allow for the winter stay.

Great action shot - really captures the movement with those splashes of movement.

[KV]

Nice action here… love the tonal range.

[Peter Dulis]
