Sometimes swans also need a bit of entertainment so I organized a swimming race with the father at the start and I on the bridge at the finish.
Great event.

Yesterday: It seems that something nice is growing between her and a cormorant!

Today on Treknature sensational! THE BIG SWAN FIGHT!!! and a close up of the bite!

I am intending to publish a book with teh whole swanstory. My question to all of the viewers: "Is there anybody with experience in publishing books?" Please let me know if you have usefull contacts!


If you like to see more swans have a look in my:
Treknature Swan Gallery with 97 Swan pictures! and swan gallery on Treklens with 68 pictures!, of the swan family. I followed the family since April every day!

Over 700 views for T-time. Look also at The knot!

Hi Henk,
Geweldige foto weer van onze zwanenvrienden. Leuke titel overigens. Wie won er? En 'zwaanachteraan' gaf het op! Blessure? Mooi werk weer Henk, een lust voor het oog!

Great composition Hendrik. I know withe models so finicky and in full action this mustve been a difficult moment to grab, but you've done wonderfully well

Hallo Hendrik.
Een mooie opname. Heb je ze eindelijk in het water gekregen en dan nog wel voor een race.
Knap werk en een mooie compositie.
Groet Frans

Hi Hendrik,
I bet for the second from left.
Are really considering a book? A calender would be nice as well!

Hallo Henk.
I bet 'Blondy' won the race?
Nice picture anyhow.
Right now there are two young swans in the ditch, at front of my house.
"Strangers in Town".
see you, Jan

Flottielje varen *_*
Prachtig en volgens goed militair gebruik is de
achterhand zeker gesteld.

Groet
John
