Birds on a Winter Afternoon on March 3rd, 2022.

I’ve found a new appreciation for swans in the past few weeks. These guys seem socialized and from my experience, are friendly towards humans. I’ve spent time just sitting by them and observing while they either stand or sit around me. We’ve fed them quite a few times at this point, so I hope they’ve realized we aren’t a threat. It’s always so relaxing to just sit and listen while they honk at each other.

Swans Through the Trees on February 12th, 2022.

A collection of some of my favourite images from this winter season. The lake was partially frozen which gave the illusion that the swans were walking on water. I was also happy with the branches in the scene as I could use them to naturally frame the photos.

I consider these photos another example of being at the right place at the right time. For example, I thought the swans looked like they were dancing in the third image. And in the fourth, I was really pleased with the way the branches perfectly framed not only the swans approaching the viewer but the ones in the background, as well. This wintery landscape didn’t last long either, so I’m glad I took these photos when I did.
