Hi, I usually don't shoot birds specifically but I really enjoy sea landscapes. Of course a few birds get caught on my photos now and then but not usually as the main subject. However, this weekend I took a walk by the sea with my camera and a couple of swan families made me company in the afternoon sun. They were quite cooperative and posed nicely both for some family portraits and also for a few individual portraits. I'm particularly happy with one of the juvenile swan portraits that I decided to post in this thread - it's most likely my best bird shot so far.
