Trumpeter Swan Pair Landing on the Water

"Trumpeter Swan Pair Landing on the Water" by Patti Deters. A pair of graceful white swans (Cygnus buccinator) prepare to land together on an open patch of water on the St. Croix River in Hudson, Wisconsin. The early morning winter light casts a soft glow to the ice blue water and you can see the distant snow-covered shoreline in the background. The cold water never seems to bother these beautiful birds, though.
