Thanks Elisa . . . They're quite rare but every bit as elegant. I will soon be posting some black-headed swans too . . . they are (as you may have guessed) white, with a black head.

Hi Doyle! Never seen a black swan! You captured the feathers very well, and the waves on the water look great; good one!

Dear California Kid:-) A beautiful swan that doesn´t need to be white. Graceful with nice featherpatterns and great motion in the water where I get the feeling that the water is bending and adjusting to the swan. Best wishes from the viking maid

Beautifully composed Doyle with fabulous details in the swan's black down. I love the movement in the water and the way the swan is staring ahead studying the way forward. White swans are always featured and they are undoubtedly very lovely but there is something more wonderful about the rarer black swan. A great capture my friend. Sorry to be late in commenting but my work is very intrusive. My very best wishes to you as always....Ray

What a proud animal Doyle, very rare this Black Swam, don't see this very often. The feathers indeed look very beautiful in the sunlight. Thanks for sharing this with us,

Thanks Sheila! The water was very tranquil but for the black swans cruising about . . . They may not be fairy tale swans but they are, indeed, quite beautiful.

He's a lovely creature Doyle. I really like how the ripples and the light reflecting off of the water surround him. Well done!

Thanks Meldi . . . not as story-bookish and white as your beautiful swans, but a lovely bird in his own right anyway! Thanks for the comments.
