I made a stop at Heritage Park on my break this afternoon, where a woman was feeding the swans, geese, and ducks. While I don't condone this activity (bread isn't particularly good for them) (plus, they're wild), but it sure was photogenic. These swans are hams, aren't they? The young geese look grown up, but they still make that cute peeping sound. The ducks are a bit shyer, but I got a couple of shots of them. Click the pic to see it bigger, and to see the rest!

They're soooo beautiful.

I had no idea that bread was bad for them. Thanks for passing that info along!

No problem! They eat aquatic plants. Bread just fills them up without giving them nutrition.

I really like the one mantling his wings, back in your Flicker group. That's a beautiful shot.

Thanks! He truly is a ham. In the spring, he swam back & forth in front of me so that I could get a picture from every angle. ;)
