Two Vile Creatures Waiting for a Handout - Prague (April 2004)

Swans, while elegant, are some of the most vile of living organisms. They are truly only surpassed by humans in their capacity for evil deeds. While in Galway City, Ireland, I witnessed a group of swans tormenting a much smaller and quite helplessly outnumbered duckling for no apparent reason. This forever changed my opinion of these graceful-looking creatures. However, they still add interest to a picture.
