There's Nothing More Graceful than Swans on a Lake

Hanover Lake is in the South Meriden CT area. As I was driving back from a showing, I noticed large white objects just bobbing along on the lake''s surface. I stopped at a light and it allowed me time to get a closer look.

I stopped at the edge of the lake, and there were cars of people throwing food out for the birds, and no signs requesting that they not do so, so the birds were not native to the lake, but having shelter and food, see no reason to leave. There were also some mallards enjoying the free lunch as well.

The swans just swam along with no visible effort. Occasionally they would dive over to catch something that must have looked tasty. Graceful, striking for their all white color and contrasting black mask and orange bill, they are truly one of nature's finer works.

Ed, I don't know about "There's Nothing More Graceful than Swans on a Lake".  Anyone that has seen you and I out on the dance floor with our wives might say that is the most graceful thing they have seen :) :) :)

Hope you and your lovely wife have a great Labor Day!!!

Ed, I'm a little surprised to see the Mallards hanging around...I thought the Swans were very territorial and would chase off other birds...still cool to see.
