Seven Swans A Swimming


Okay.  Maybe there's more than seven.   And maybe they aren't swimming.  But they are swans.  Tundra Swans, to be exact.



Not swimming, but perhaps dancing ...


Conga line, anyone???


Where?  Where's the Conga line?  Which way to the Conga line???

  1. Now how come you know your swans from your swans? I thought they were all the same, although I do remember you asking which were in my photos.

    Great pics!

  3. Dear Faith,
    Thank you! I know because I am a goat of superior intelligence (plus the Goatmother told me). :)

  6. If they are anything like geese, you can keep them, but my human is positively drooling over my shoulder wanting to have some here to take pictures of. Silly humans.

  7. Dear Millie,
    They like agricultural fields (that is a carrot patch they were in) so you better watch your corn field. :) I know what you mean, though. Those humans get all drooly over the darndest things.

  9. I think you could sell tickets for this: "Dance with swans! Conga line dancing for an extra fee!" I'd buy one.

  10. Dear Goats and Hounds,
    Oh, you should see if you can find out. They truly are magnificent birds, especially in flight!

  11. Dear Ginnie,
    Now there's what I like. An entrepreneurial spirit! :)

  12. I'm with Ginnie! But you also made me want to get my little (or now big) behind back out there and shoot some more wildlife. These are such romantic creatures! (No, not THAT kind of romance!!! Just poetic looking.)

  13. Dear SnowCatcher,
    You go! Get out there and capture that wildlife. :) Of course you know you will put my photos to shame. But that's okay. I have an excuse...hooves and small buttons and such. :)

  14. They are gorgeous, and somehow "Tundra Swans" sounds so very adventurous and almost exotic (in a Northern kind of way). I think this type of swan may migrate through Wisconsin - they look familiar.

    I think their favourite dance would be the Swanga. :)

    (Or Swonga?)

  15. Dear Mrs. Micawber,
    "Come on baby, shake your body, do that Swanga ... know you can't control yourself any longa ..." :)

  16. They are beautiful. We get Canadian Geese from time to time but never swans. Lots and lots of crows. Noisy, bossy crows. Much Love.

  18. Dear Hindustanka,
    Yes! Isn't it a marvel how far birds travel in their migrations? They seem to have tight knit family units as well...hmmm...speaking, eh? I need to do a little research! :)
