Green Lake-park

Green, the colour of nature, brings calm and balance.

I am guessing this is a black swan (Thanks to Charles Arcudi - comments below - I now know it is a Mute Swan...be sure to check out his photos...very, very good).  I am a complete fool when it comes to classifying living things...guess I should have paid more attention in biology class...my bad.

I know it is a bird and that it eats things in order to stay alive and this fella was munching down when I took the picture.  The fish below him wanted to get at the food, but I gather that the swan wasn't about to let that happen.  

Eat, float around and watch the sun go up and down.  I mean, why is our life better than theirs?  Can someone remind me...I must have missed that class as well.
A garden to walk in and immensity to dream in--what more could he ask?  - Victor Hugo

If you are looking for old growth forests and bountiful nature, I suggest the wild coasts of western USA and Canada.  However, if it is landscaped nature you are wanting, then I suggest coming to China.

This walkway which connects the street to the main gardens has a wonderful archway of swaying bamboo which turns the sunlight into wonderful shades of green.  Hence the name 翠湖(cuihu) - Green Lake, although cui can mean jade green and this area definitely has that shade present...wonderful place to spend some time.
