Swan close-up
:rolleyes: Never took wild swan photos before, so did not know they could be so aggressive! While I was taking pictures of his family, this male was coming after me. Thought it was going to climb in my kayak, when the female called him back. Subject was a wee bit closer then I normally like! :eek:

Whoa...that first one is in your face. Really like the symetry (sp) of it. Really intense...

The family shot is nice as well...different audience. I might crop some off the top... :wavey:

Nice shooting!

Any sign of loon chicks? Hoping to get out on Massebesic this week...

Hi Jim
No loon chicks yet! If the rain did not wash away the nests maybe in another week or so?
Here's Ma and Pa swan.
