Would you like to install it now?
She sure seemed to be enjoying those little white flowers. If you turn up the sound and listen closely, you can hear the thwack of people hitting golf balls on the driving range just over the fence. It didn't appear to be bothering the swan.

Beautiful swan and a great way to get rid of the weeds on the golf course!

I love swans, but you do need to be careful when you get up close.

Beautiful swan and video. We had a pair come right up to the back door last year. What a treat that was.

Swans are beautiful. But you don't want to make them angry. :)

Funny how animails get used to sounds that are not natural to them. I used to live in an apartment complex with a manmade lake (actually a large pond). Ducks and geese lived in the pond. When it rainded, there was a big puddle next to the road, and the ducks/geese would come and play in the puddle. Cars would swoosh by 2 feet away, and it never bothered them, because they were used to it. One day another man-made sound scared the heck out of them though.

I didn't know that Swans ate little flowers. Interesting video.
