Wow, very nice... I have only seen them too far for any useful shot.

Beautifully done...

Thanks, they are the heaviest Waterfowl in North America. Up to 25 lbs!
This was 100 yards from Montana, near the West Yellowstone entrance....

Really nice Bruce! Beautiful bird and a great job capturing the detail on a very white swan.

Thanks, Leon, et al. I was so stoked to find this guy exactly where I'd been told to look for him. This was very close to a Bald Eagle nest too. What a day!
