On the Move
I found these two splashing beauties in Hyde Park last week. Though they made some noise, the show they put on made me fall in love with London’s feathery inhabitants.

This is my entry to this week’s Photo Challenge: On the Move.

Beautiful photo Paula. I was certain your music was going to be The Swan by Saint-Saens, but I was wrong. π

So much ivory in the necks of this pair.
Trumpeters are very tough. Extremely territorial and with a hiss and approach with their big bodies, they can frighten off many large geese that venture too close to their nests or partner.

π I thought of ivory too π I never spent enough time in their company to see how territorial they are…
