My
second round of the reserve gave me a better chance to capture the
trumpeter swan family on my camera. I was mainly going round a
second time as I was hoping to find the rest of the info boards -
but also not wanting another coffee quite yet.
Well
there is the first board as I re-entered the cafe for my second cuppa
- but where board 2 is I haven't a clue. While sipping my Americano, I
got some more photographs taken - as evidence by this pair of eider
duck males and the one female.
I
also got a couple of shots of the smew - which may not be a regular in
my posts as I haven't got any good photos previously. But here one is
to show that they are there at Arundel!
I never heard of a smew before. I wonder if that's where Al Capp got the idea for the Shmoo. They look kind of similar.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful pictures of the swans.
Havent a clue what AC and Shmoo are....but have seen a smew!
ReplyDeleteThe Shmoo was a creature in a comic strip called "L'il Abner," by Al Capp.
