Black Swan by nickspicsnz

Black Swan

Took Tilly for a wander around Hamilton Lake this evening and introduced her to ducks, geese, swans, etc.
A really neat macro of the swan. It's handy having the lake there to wander around while waiting for hockey games to begin!

@dide Thanks Dianne. I was in Hamilton with my younger daughter for an orthodontist appointment. The orthodontists surgery is near the lake and I sometimes get a chance to pop down to take a few photos. (My elder daughter plays hockey at Ngatea rather than Hamilton, and they both play netball at Pukekohe.)

Nice capture Nicky, imagine if our noses were the same shade as our eyes...

Matching eyes and beak! Hope Tilly took care with those swans!

@kiwinanna @aat3877 @alinz @maggiemae @pitasmum Thanks very much for your comments. I liked this one as it actually came out as I planned (for a change!) and wasn't cropped or anything. I particularly liked the clarity and colour of the eye and how it matched the beak.

Beautiful shot. I am impressed how close you could get to not have to crop FAV

@miata2u Thanks Peggy. He was on his own and didn't appear to be frightened even though we had the puppy with us.
