    Smile Edinburgh Swans

    Hi!
    Havent posted any photos in ages!
    Went for a lovely walk in the sun to Inverlieth Park the other day. I would recommend going for a visit if you are ever in Edinburgh, its right next to the Botanics. There are a lot of swans which are very tame. As soon as they hear the rustle of a plastic bag they get out the water to have a nosey! Be careful though as some are very cheeky and will take the bread right out you hand!
    Anyway here are a few of photos I took. Hope you like!








    cheeky!

    Those are magic and they certainly get up close and personal don't they?

    Love the photos Stroma88.

    They are such beautiful birds and must be lovely to get up so close to them.
