Cygnet in flight

[Havana]

The resident pair of swans on my local pond ,only managed to raise one cygnet.
It is now 5 months old and this was likely it's maiden flight, as yesterday it was still running on water and not taking off.

Excellent shots. It's cool that you were able to capture its first flight.
