Swan
Or swan.
Looks like a Trumpeter swan to me, rather than a duck.
I agree!
If that’s a duck, I’m an octopus!
It’s a swan.
Louis!
I just wanted to see if you guys were paying attention.
That’s what my third grade teacher used to say when we caught her in an error.
She was a very wise woman.
We do
Very nice picture, but that Duck is a Swan!
All Ducks are very offended.
and all Predators are smiling.
IMHO,that’s a swan.
Tis a swan………
Lynne,
Wonderful mornings, great ensuring eye, beautiful describe you and your photos❗️
Thank you 😊
Orlando Gibbons had it right:
The silver swan, who, living, had no note,
When death approached, unlocked her silent throat.
Leaning her breast against the reedy shore,
Thus sang her first, and last, and sang no more:
Farewell all joys,
Oh Death come close mine eyes.
More geese than swans now live,
More fools than wise.
Pretty bird. Ugly building.
