Very nice photograph. The ducklings are so inquisitive as to what their mother might be up to. Nice clarity and action shot.

I love this shot and your title and caption. I love how the little ones are paying such close attention. I wonder if this was a lesson or mom just going about her business fishing for the little ones.

Comment from PeglegDeb


lol...perfectly titled sg. Their earnest little faces seem to be saying exactly that, don't they!

Nicely put together. Black AND white perfectly exposed. Focus is excellent and timing, of course, could not be better here.

Now I'm almost afraid to ask but weren't there four of these little guys?? Hoping one is simply out of range.

Love it sg.....photo AND your descriptions.

Deborah

A nicely composed shot. These swans use their long necks to feed on weeds that grow on the bottom. The cygnets seem quite amazed to see this phenomenon but they will get the hang of it shortly.

Fred,
A beautiful picture of the female Black Swan head down as she bottom-feeds under the anxious gaze of her cygnets swimming closely beside her. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
