According to this article they may eat small fish?

In the wild, swans eat aquatic vegetation, with their long necks allowing them to feed on plants growing on river beds. They also eat small creatures such as molluscs that cling to the vegetation, and small fish, frogs and worms. Swans also will graze in fields, eating grass if it is available. |

Oops! Weird though as we watched them and they looked like they were staring under the water looking for fish then diving under. And there were loads of tiny fish near surface. Guess they were diving for vegetables:) |

I like the fact that the texture of the water blends in with the texture of the ducks. |

Pretty image, but seems to me to be a shoe-horn for the challenge. Without the title I would not look at this photograph and think "Good." Just my two cents. |

I love that bokeh!
I wish there were more light on their faces, but it's a lovely composition for sure!
