Adorable

Thank you, I thought they were adorable too! Happy shooting! :)

I picked this as winner because I just loved the composition, they often say wildlife needs to be looking at the lens but I just thought this photo showed a view of the mother which the cygnets probably see 90% of the time as they are growing. A sweet photo.

.and a brilliant choice too :)

Thank you so much for hosting the challenge! I am so thrilled to have been selected, it is very encouraging! Thanks again!

Well done on winning Just Swans challenge, so deserved, a brilliant photo

Thank you so much Joyce for your thoughtful comment, it is greatly appreciated!

congrats on your win, how darling is this and she had so many babies........... thank you for capturing it and presenting it to all of us to enjoy

Thank you so much! You have some really lovely pictures in your gallery as well, especially of swans. These babies were born almost 2 years ago and this same mother and father had 6 more babies this year. I can't wait to what they have this year in the spring. Thanks again and happy shooting! :)

Delightful! Love the perspective!

Thank you so much! Happy shooting! :)

"Biutiful" :) Elaine, I have a Portuguese friend whose last name is Zamith (is grand-grand father was Scotish, and in Portugal the Zammit Family had an H in the end)... maybe you´re relatives :) a kiss

Thank you for your comment and the information on the name. But as far as I know the name Zammit is Maltese, but you never know. Have a great day! :)

What a great capture! You have some amazing photos!

Thank you, sadly with all the rain this year this Mamma's nest and eggs floated away. so no babies for me to take pictures of this year. I enjoyed your gallery as well, I recognized a lot of the places you shot. Nicely done! :)

Can this be any cuter??? Super Adorable!
Great Photo!

Thanks, and yes they are extremely cute, I just love going down to the waterfront every spring and checking out this swan and her new family each year. This little family was the best so far. Merry Christmas and thank you for your comment!
