Sortie at Dawn

Big tundra swans leave at first light bound for some local destination. They will migrate from coastal South Carolina ( here ) to the arctic tundra at the next full moon hence.

I like the 'V' of the two front ones. Perfect timing. V

Taking to the air, clattering across the water's surface as they make that daunting journey to the artic...V

perhaps a reconnaissance mission then, or just a warm up flight for the marathon ahead...a tangible ambience here..

Marvelous in flight poses. Hard to imagine them flying that far! V.
