Bathing beauties

Humans, animals and birds seemed to breathe a sigh of relief as the sun came out, radiating a little warmth into the air after weeks of icy, wintery weather. I was amused watching the geese and a pair of swans. They were perched on the edge of the ice still covering part of the canal, preening their feathers as though it was a beauty parlour. In the melted water, a swan was having a really good, prolonged bathe, obviously thoroughly enjoying the sensation.

  1. Just look at that bird stretcher her feathers into the water, which is probably quite cold!
