The Swans have returned to Alaska. Usually one of the first of the migratory wwaterfowl to return to the north country and the last to leave in the fall. This nesting pair was photographed at Beluga Lake in Homer, Alaska. They will be interesting to watch during the spring and summer season, it appears that they will remain on the lake. While watching them, I had the opportunity to watch them go through the mating ritual as well as move into the grassland, I am assuming to build a nest.
The next sequence of shots was taken of the "Cob" (Male) following the mating process with his mate. The female Swan is called a "Pen".
