SWANS AND RIVER PATTERNS

There has been a large group of Swans staying in our area.  I got a couple pictures of some swimming by.  I would guess there are at least 50 in the area.  They are staying farther back up the river where there is some open water.  When the river froze over in front of our place this past week and had a fresh coat of snow, the patterns in the following pictures showed up.  I don't have any idea what caused them.  Somehow the water came up through the ice and melted the snow.  Interesting.

Three Swans swimming.


Here are a couple more.

More of the patterns.  They go on down the river.
