Sleeping swan

Sleeping swan
A wild black swan asleep on her nest. In a National Park. I walked quietly near her and she was quite unconcerned. Her beak was buried in her feathers. She merely blinked an eye at me!

As kids we were always told to say away from swans because they could break your arm with their wings. To be truthful I'm still scared of them! This one seems friendly though... Lovely shot Diana.

Hi Diana
I like this picture very much!
Our swans don't bother that much if people go near. I think in a way they know people are kind to them.
Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Black swan looks very strange, almost extra terrestrial. Dark gray and dark red instead of white and orange.
