         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons
 
Saturday, January 11, 2014: 

Paula went to Monticello, MN, to see trumpeter swans along the Mississippi River.

There is a program to feed the birds.  They gather by the hundreds for lunch.

 

 

After lunch, they sun themselves even if it winter time.

Swans have a good coat of feathers.

 
The river is open and the birds spend much of their time taking off and landing on the water.

Great fun if you are a bird.

 
Swans are good at flying.

They are beautiful to see too.

 
Sometimes they rest or swim on the water.

Paula, how do they taste?
Quote of the day:  Beautiful birds.   Mark    < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
