Take-Off

Vancouver Island, BC

The Trumpeter Swan is the largest Native American waterfowl species and they begin appearing on Vancouver Island in November and stay until March. We saw a small group of these swans swimming on the Nanaimo River and I was lucky enough to catch this on as he 'walked on water' during his take off.
