Video: Spring Swan

Posted on April 30, 2011 by kwilder

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rVpClSjrPk] This Swan, moving through the water on a gray day, reminds me of the capricious way that Spring has unfolded here on Long Island this year.

I am not that interested in the current, royal wedding. Kings and Queens seem so outdated and undemocratic. Though, there was a time when I […]
