Flower List Bonus: Swans 2-17-14


There are no flowers blooming outside at present but we do have 3 magnificent Mute Swans in a small opening in frozen Lake Aspen in front of the Lake House. As distinct from Trumpeter Swans and Tundra Swans which have black bills, the Mute Swans have orange bills and a black face. These three swans are very graceful and certainly not as ferocious as advertised.
 















 

They have been here for several weeks and they hang out with about one hundred 
plus honking Canada Geese.


Sometimes they look intently into the depths of the lake ....


And decide its time for lunch ....
