As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

  1. Man,that swan’s feet are HUGE! As Fats Waller so eloquently said,

    “Your feet’s too big
    Don’t want you c
    cause your feet’s too big
    Mad at you,
    cause your feet’s too big …
    Your pedal extremities really are onboxious.”

    1. Yeah, they’re big birds. Up to 22 lbs. A House sparrow weighs less than an ounce. Curious, though, that somebody nicknamed “Fats” would be so picky.
