A Black Swan rears up and stretches its wings in the lake in West Byron wetlands. A resident pair have bred five signets and fiercely protective of them, ever watchful of any threat.

About byronbackyard

Many thanks for checking out my photos, please feel free to give feedback! My wanderings in nature and observations of birds, particularly raptors, is what gives me great joy and constantly reminds me of the beauty and strength of life. My favourites are raptors, I love their freedom, grace, ruthlessness, pride, adaptability and flexibility and I learn much about parenting, protection and blind faith from them.
