Swan with Cygnets

Swan with Cygnets
Captured in the reed beds of a large pond in Emsworth, Hampshire.

Out of shot my wife had thrown in some food pellets to get them to come close enough for me to get a shot :-)

Ha, ha..........yes, she makes a great photographers assistant..!! They were initially too far away for the lens I was using so she had to tempt them to come closer.

I'm pleased you like the resulting photo Güni............and thanks for your lovely comments!

Enjoy the rest of the day, best wishes, Keith :-)

Gut, wenn man einen Helfer hat. Und ich dachte, du hättest ein Tarnzelt aufgebaut ;-)

The swans and duck around this pond are fed nearly every day by the resident who live nearby, so they're used to people and not afraid of them.

My wife makes a lovely photographer's assistant :-))
