Busking Mute Swan

A male Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) fluffs up its neck feathers and arches its beautiful wings as it powers through the colourful reflections of boating paraphernalia in Whitlingham Great Broad, Norwich. This behaviour is known as busking and is a warning to Swans, and other larger water birds, to keep their distance and exit its territory.
