Title: Mute Swans Courting
Post by: Vicsr on February 27, 2009, 03:25:49 PM

Thursday during a lakeshore tour from Port Hope to Oshawa, a pair of Mute swans performed a courting dance for those of us on shore at Newcastle. My wife captured most of this watery ballet with some amazing pictures. I chipped in the last eleven. The link below takes you to the album on our website. Note that even when there appears to be only one swan in the picture there are always at least  two. Because of a couple of the pictures, I wondered if I should warn that "Viewer Discretion is advised!"  :wink:
