Sometimes i find photographing "everyday species" so rewarding....
Still working on waterfowl and love watching these Swans in their courtship prepairing for nesting.

I enjoy the common species as well, many fun hours working with our local trumpeter swans.
I like the interaction between the two,wing and foot position of left bird.
Feels a bit tight on left and top.
I am not seeing a lot of detail in the back of the right bird near the base of the neck. Might benefit from a little work there to tease out some more detail.
