  1. Gorgeous birds! I love the curve of their necks. They are always fun to watch. The town is cute with the towers (smokestacks?) and ferris wheel.

    1. Thank you Hannah! That's the amusement park, Linnanmäki, in the background. The towers are part of the different rides (I think).

  6. Very beautiful. Mama Swan should be very proud that at least she was able to bring up 3 of her cygnets.

    I bet they winter there.
