The black swan is a beautiful bird. Well captured here
I like this! The serenity of the swan juxtaposed with the waves and ominous colour of the water.
Thanks, Bill and Paul.
Not just one, but a whole flock! I have heard “black swan” used as a term to mean something that is either impossible or totally unexpected. Nice photos!
