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.

So when I saw the white one move, I made sure to get into a position where the juveniles would soon swim by at a fairly close distance. (I spent more than an hour following them and took more than 100 photos. All except 17 of these were sorted into the trash bin.)

Really nice detail. Love the pose.
