I am glad it ended without injury to any of the main characters :) Here in Vancouver, the mute swans are pinioned, since they are not native to the area. This is something that I feel is cruel and something that I hope one day to work towards ending. I'm wondering what the situation is for the swans in your area.Black Jack's Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436115876996209227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601795050810366857.post-22299779904044632142013-02-05T18:18:22.341-08:002013-02-05T18:18:22.341-08:00You took some amazing action photos!
