Papa swan having a wee break by the side of the Union Canal as I was walking home this evening, while mama swan rearranges the nest nearby.

I’m not a good photographer but this was a calming moment for me so I tried to capture it.

Swan doing what it's evolved the long neck for - eating plants from the bottom of the lake, where other grazers can't reach. If the neck is still too short, it tilts the whole body forward for extend its reach.

A coot is admiring the nice tail from the distance.

A swan, rear end sticking in the air, black legs dangling down and head deep underwater. It's in a calm lake, making a small ripple around it. A black bird with white beak and forehead looks on from the distance. On the far shore some trees and buildings and a grey sky above.

Same scene, but the swan has resurfaced, floating gracefully on the lake, head up in the air, done chewing. The coot has moved on, not wanting to be caught gawking.

A lone #Whooper #swan on the #reservoir at #Stoneyford this morning. I’m guessing it’s a #cygnet that’s been left behind by the migrating flock.

I live vaguely near a canal. On one side is a dirt path. On the other side is a single lane road. Swans live in the canal. Every year a swan builds their nest on the small green tuft between the canal and the road. Every year someone puts up a fence guarding the swan and their nest.
I love that someone does this.
