papa swan

he's doing his best to ward off the predators but as of today
the babies (cygnets) have been cut from 9 to 5. I guess four of them became turtle food.

He looks fierce! Beautiful capture. Sorry to hear about the babies.

Wonderful photograph! I can see the attitude in this fellow. Love the green eye, the drop of water, the way you're composed this. Well done.

Jusr great. Love the little water drop on the bill. Hope you weren't too close-they seem to attack things 10 times their size.

Powerful image. Unusual angle and I think the tight crop is right on!
