Swan Lake

[NGE]

Since I had to be at my fav lake yesterday for a wedding, naturally I took my camera. And I was not disappointed, as usual. At around 2:30pm my wife spotted these swans and their ugly offsprings . Then towards sunset (after the wedding) I couldn't resist these mirror images. Enjoy......NGE

There's a Swan Lake in Tulsa, Oklahoma, once the site of an amusement park and swimming hole, but now in the middle of an influential residential area. I'll take a pic next time I am out that way. Monty

Monty, to my knowledge there are no swan lakes in Michigan. The lake in the pics is Newburgh Lake in Livonia. Mich. I just name the pic, " Swan Lake "......NGE

Naturegirl, Do you remember the fairytale about the ugly duckling? When you compare young cygnets to young duckies they are Ugly!.....larry

 

[naturegirl]

Larry, I know the fairy tale, I just think they are too cute. Only babies get away with being ugly and cute!

I thought you were talking about the Swan Lake in Northville off 7 mile road, not too far from Livonia. It's more like a pond than a lake, but it's nice.

Great pics!

NGE--what made that ring in the lake(last pic.)? Was it a big fish jumping up? Did you have a fishing pole with you?
Nice pictures!! Those swans are beautiful!

Bluegills bustin' bugs, and yes I did have my pole, but was not fishing. I was at a wedding and promised my wife I would not fish this time around............NGE

Great pics, nge. You could have set out your line and just went down and checked it every so often, maybe.

I love the swans. Young or old they all have a beauty of
their own. Fess up now you did drop a line didn't you?

 

[NGE]

To keep peace with my wife, and to be kept from being a hypocrite, I did not even take any poles with us....NGE

Around here, the warden will cite you for "unattended lines" (been there, done that)
