Mute Swan

Taken during a walk around Hilsea, Lido near Portsmouth, yesterday. A sunny but cold day.

Please check out the PiP for another shot of the same swan, taken just before this one.

Thanks for looking.

Almost grown up. S/he will be all white soon. I often see swans stretching their wings, but never have I managed to get a photo of that. Well done Keith
