At midmorning yesterday, I stepped out onto my deck to
stretch a bit. While there, I spotted fourteen
swans on the lake below. The lake
remains frozen, mind you, but the swans seemed quite content as they wobbled
around in a cluster on the greenish ice.
Swans! Another
sure sign of spring!
Some of the swans were issuing sounds something akin
to a hasty marriage between the honking of a goose the growling of a lion
fighting off laryngitis. I would not exactly
classify the swan noises as singing. My
next step is to contact my brother-in-law to see if swans are classified as
pussy birds.

Where are the photos?
ReplyDeleteSadly, the swans were a bit too far for a decent photo.
