Also die Haltung hat auf jeden Fall etwas majestätische Ausstrahlung!!! Aber die anderen Wasservögel scheinen nicht sehr beeindruckt zu sein!!! :-))
Ein ganz wundervoller SChnappschuss und das Licht zeigt die verschiedenen Farbtöne in seinem Gefieder aufs Feinste,,
"friends, romans, countrymen, lend me your ears!" ; )) what a great majestic pose of the bedraggled looking juvenile – still suspended somewhere between ugly duckling and graceful swan, it seems… love how you shot him stepping forward and with his wings catching the gentle light! greetings, sabine. p.s.: usually i would say the swan's "the fairest one of all", but with their shiny sunkissed heads the mallards are an even match!
I ´m always getting cold feet, seeing birds in winter on ice or in the water :-)
Excellent image of this quite dirty swan and accompany!
Well done Marc!
