Some Peace And Beauty Today

Driving to Monticello Swan Park to meet a friend today I saw six beautiful trumpeter swans fly over Highway 39 right above my car.  I thought to myself, "Angels!"  Their sleek white bodies with long necks and powerful wings represent angels to me.

Some of the angels at Swan Park appear to be taking an afternoon snooze.

There was a lot of noise at Swan Park.  Naturally the trumpeter swans made the most noise. In second place were the mallards.  Coming in third in the noise department today were (and they're no slouch) the Canadian Geese.
