Swan lake

Last week when we were fishing with the children in one of the country club ponds, the male swan was unusually aggressive, and threatened to attack anyone he felt was invading his territory.  He made Jimmy and Jake back up a time or two.  Now we understand his behavior:  seven baby swans hatched last week.

One of the golf staff took this picture.  I may take my telephoto lens out tomorrow and try to get a few shots myself - and be prepared to run!
