They do not swim close to the shore, so it is not easy to take a closer photo of them even with a big telezoom lens I think. <br /><br />Have a great new week, ciao! :)<br /><br />http://dogadansevgiyle.blogspot.comMüge Tekilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02445015921700993580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8109980962343059479.post-46243536576800038402011-03-07T04:48:59.682+10:002011-03-07T04:48:59.682+10:00I think all swans are beautiful - whether white or...I think all swans are beautiful - whether white or black.mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230845410313320080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8109980962343059479.post-49222746155341062011-03-07T02:51:55.364+10:002011-03-07T02:51:55.364+10:00Striking birds, the swans we see are white tundr...Striking birds, the swans we see are white tundra swans.
