A Trio Of Swans At Sunrise

Holly Cawfield

A Trio Of Swans At Sunrise

This was taken on the shore of Lake Ontario in Port Credit. I was sitting on the pebbled shore one very early (and cold) morning tossing breadcrusts to ducks when all of a sudden these swans came from around the bend with an air of graceful curiosity.

It was one of those times when I got in the car that I kept checking the monitor of the camera …hoping it would be in focus! :-D
