Deux cygnes sur un étang dans les Ardennes belge. Un surveille pendant que l'autre se nourrit.J'aime bien le contraste de la blancheur des cygnes avec le sombre des reflets de l'eau

Nice photo Rudy and welcome to TN. I would prefer you to cropout the bird at left or right and create a composition of only one bird. You may also wait for birds to come closer and take the photo at that time. In this photo viewers cant concantrate on any of the birds as they are looak apart and create a reasonably high contrast with the background. So when you look to one bird the other distracts the eye. Another thing is the overexposed white areas, which is a common problem in totally white bird photography. All I can advise is to again compose the shot for one bird and take 3 different exposure values on it. The right bird with the normally exposed frame (I think 1.5 stops down), the background will be more black and the impact on the viewer should be greater. Waiting for your other nice photos. Thanks for sharing.
