The young swan streching the wings. They do it several times a day but still don't fly. Here you see also very well how the feathers start changing from grey/brown to white.
He starts more and more looking like his dad!

Hoi Hendrik,

Hej Heniek!
WOW! Ale piekne ujecie! Po upierzeniu widac, ze to mlody labedz. Bardzo ladny moment uchwyciles. Ciekawi mnie jakie parametry uzywales.
Gratuluje i pozdrawiam - Roma

Hendrik,
Compo and swan capture at the right moment are good but IMO noise should be reduced.

Hi Hendrik,

Great capture, a nicely presented shot and a wonderful pose of the Swan exercising its wings, I don't think it will be too long until we see your shots of their first flight, nice detail and lovely colours too.

TFS Hilary :o)

Hello Hendrik
this is an excellent shot. Congrats! Excellent POV, framing, great sharpness, lighting and colours. - This is not a ugly duckling! This is a beautiful swan! Have a great weekend my friend.

Heinz
