Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: A Dawn Swan. Near to the solstice and at 8:10 on Attenborough Nature Reserve the sun is just about to rise.
The smudge near the centre of the picture is a passing black-headed gull. There was a lot of activity and noise at the time. As I walked onto the foot bridge I disturbed a group of about twenty cormorants some of which can be seen dotted about in this picture as they spread-out diving as they went. I assume they had spent the night under the bridge for the warmth (do cormorants feed at night?). The air was full of the gulls swooping and bickering. A couple of coots had a real set-to near to the bridge, the willow at the foot of the path to the visitor centre https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/202648 was full of chattering magpies and somewhere near there more coots and moorhens were arguing. The picture is of the second of a pair of swans which swam serenely through the mayhem under the bridge and off toward the north east. |
