Swan...


I love... Swans.....The word "swan" is derived from Old English swan, akin to the German Schwan and Dutch zwaan, in turn derived from Indo-European root *swen -to sound, to sing-

Swans are beautiful gentle creatures. Where I live swans are black instead of white. I'd love to see a white swan in the wild. They are a most elegant looking bird!

Thank you for sharing another beautiful picture.
In the UK, all Mute Swans are said to belong to the Queen.
